Question

5x+x+x=16-x

Answer 1

5x+x+x=16-x

=> 7x=16-x

=> 8x=16

=> x=2

Answer 2

\(5x+x+x=16-x\)

\(7x=16-x\)

\(7x+x=16\)

\(8x=16\)

\(x=\frac{16}{8}\)

\(x=2\)

Answer 3

5x + x+ x = 16 - x 

5x + x + x + x = 16 

5x + x * 1 + x *1 + x*1 = 16

x * ( 5 + 1 + 1 + 1 ) = 16

x * 8 =16 

x = 16 : 8 

x = 2
