8/(x+1)= 4/3

\frac{8}{x + 1} = \frac{4}{3}

x = 5

Solution steps

\frac{8}{x + 1} = \frac{4}{3}

Cross multiply

24 = (x + 1) \cdot 4

Switch sides

(x + 1) \cdot 4 = 24

Divide both sides by

\frac{x}{x + 4} + 1 = - \frac{4}{x + 4}

\frac{3 x - 2}{3 x + 1} = \frac{1}{3}

\frac{x + 3}{x} = 1 + \frac{1 - x}{2 x}
