Answer 1

To solve the equation 1/3(x+3/5) = 3, we can start by multiplying both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the fraction:

3 * 1/3(x+3/5) = 3 * 3

Simplifying, we get:

x + 3/5 = 9

To isolate x, we can subtract 3/5 from both sides:

x + 3/5 - 3/5 = 9 - 3/5

Simplifying, we have:

x = 44/5

So the solution is x = 44/5 or x = 8.8.
