If \( \frac{X+2}{5}=\frac{28}{35} \), then \( X=\ldots \ldots \ldots \) b) 4

To solve the equation \( \frac{X+2}{5}=\frac{28}{35} \), we start by simplifying the right side. Notice that \( \frac{28}{35} \) simplifies to \( \frac{4}{5} \) since both 28 and 35 can be divided by 7. Now, the equation is: \[ \frac{X+2}{5} = \frac{4}{5} \] Next, we can multiply both sides by 5 to eliminate the fraction: \[ X + 2 = 4 \] Finally, subtract 2 from both sides: \[ X = 4 - 2 = 2 \] So the solution to the equation is \( X = 2 \). Here, the value \(4\) that you mentioned is not correct in the context of the equation provided. Don't worry; even the best mathematicians make slips! Always reassess your calculations and remember to check your final result for accuracy!
