Answer:
second
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{2x}{5} +\frac{1x}{5} +\frac{5}{8} -\frac{2}{8} = \frac{3x}{5} +\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
3/5 x + 3/8
remove parentheses:
2/5x + 5/8 + 1/5x - 1/4
simplify terms:
3/5x + 5/8 - 1/4
make 1/4 have a common denominator to 15/8 by multiplying 2/2.
3/5x + 5-2/8 =
3/5x + 3/8
