x/(x+3)= 4/6

\frac{x}{x + 3} = \frac{4}{6}

x = 6

Solution steps

\frac{x}{x + 3} = \frac{4}{6}

Cross multiply

x \cdot 6 = 4 x + 12

Move

4 x

to the left side

2 x = 12

Divide both sides by

2

x = 6

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 3

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 6

r = \frac{a - x}{a + x}

\frac{5}{6} = \frac{4}{x}

y, x = \frac{4}{y + 2}

y, x = \frac{2}{y}

\frac{1}{x} = 0.3
