Question

Create and write a real-world situation that could be represented by the equation below 1/2x+2 1/8=1/4x+3 1/8.

Answer 1

$\frac{1}{2}x+2\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{4}x+3\frac{1}{8}$

You can say:

John bikes 2 1/8 miles per week and adds 1/2 mile every month.

Carlos bikes 3 1/8 miles per week and adds 1/4 of a mile every month.

Find the number of months passed after both bike the same miles.

X = number of months-
