Answer 1

To solve the equation

\[
811(x + 45) = 2455,
\]

we first divide both sides by 811 to isolate the term with \( x \):

\[
x + 45 = \frac{2455}{811}.
\]

Next, we need to calculate \( \frac{2455}{811} \):

\[
\frac{2455}{811} \approx 3.029.
\]

Now, we can continue with the equation:

\[
x + 45 \approx 3.029.
\]

Next, we subtract 45 from both sides:

\[
x \approx 3.029 - 45.
\]

Finally, calculating the right side:

\[
x \approx -41.971.
\]

Thus, the solution is approximately:

\[
x \approx -41.971.
\]
