Question

(19 3/29 - x) - 8 16/29 = 3 17/29

Answer 1

(19 3/29 - x) - 8 16/29 = 3 17/29

19 3/29 - x = 3 17/29 + 8 16/29

19 3/29 - x = 11 33/29 = 12 4/29

x = 19 3/29 - 12 4/29

x = 6 28/29

Answer 2

To solve the equation, we need to find the value of 'x'.

Let's first convert all mixed numbers into improper fractions:

19 3/29 = (19 * 29 + 3)/29 = 572/29 8 16/29 = (8 * 29 + 16)/29 = 248/29 3 17/29 = (3 * 29 + 17)/29 = 110/29

Now the equation becomes:

(572/29 - x) - 248/29 = 110/29

Next, we want to combine the fractions on the left side:

(572/29 - 248/29) - x = 110/29

To combine the fractions, they must have a common denominator (which is already 29). We can then subtract the numerators:

(572 - 248)/29 - x = 110/29

324/29 - x = 110/29

Now, we want to isolate 'x', so let's move 324/29 to the other side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides:

x = 324/29 - 110/29

To subtract the fractions, they must have a common denominator (which is already 29):

x = (324 - 110)/29

x = 214/29

So, the value of 'x' is 214/29.
