Question

What is the solution to the equation x + 16 1\4 = 64?x = 32 1\4x = 47 3\4x = 36 3\4x = 4 1\4

Answer 1

Given the equation:

$x+16\frac{1}{4}=64$

Solve for x:

$\begin{gathered} x+\frac{65}{4}=64 \\ x+\frac{65}{4}-\frac{65}{4}=64-\frac{65}{4} \\ x=\frac{191}{4}=47\frac{3}{4} \end{gathered}$

Answer:

$x=47\frac{3}{4}$
