To find the value of x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
The equation is: x + 1/10 = 29/90
First, let's get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by the common denominator, 90:
90*(x + 1/10) = 90*(29/90)
90x + 9 = 29
Next, let's isolate x by subtracting 9 from both sides:
90x + 9 - 9 = 29 - 9
90x = 20
Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 90:
(90x)/90 = 20/90
x = 20/90
Simplifying the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (which is 10), we get:
x = 2/9
Therefore, x = 2/9.
x + 1/10 = 29/90. What is x?
