Verified Answer :

add 5/9 to both sides. common denominator would be 72 so you would multiply the top and bottom of 3/8 by 9 (bc 9x8 is 72) to get 27/72. you would multiply top and bottom of 5/9 by 8 to get 40/72 and you would add 40+27 which equals 67 so x=67/72 i believe

First, simplify both sides of your equation.

\(\frac{8}{3}\) \(=x+ \frac{-5}{9}\)

Second, flip your equation.

\(x + \frac{-5}{9} = \frac{3}{8}\)

Finally, add \(\frac{5}{9}\) to both of the sidee.

\(x+ \frac{-5}{9} + \frac{5}{9} = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{5}{9}\)

\(x= \frac{67}{72}\)

Final Answer-

\(x= \frac{67}{72}\)
