240:(x+3)-5=7
First, we simplify the left side of the equation:240 / (x + 3) - 5 = 7
Next, we isolate the term with the variable x:240 / (x + 3) = 7 + 5240 / (x + 3) = 12
Then, we cross multiply:240 = 12(x + 3)240 = 12x + 36
Next, we isolate the variable x:12x = 240 - 3612x = 204x = 204 / 12x = 17
Therefore, the solution to the first equation is x = 17.
16*(11 - x/8) = 64
We first simplify the second equation:16*(11 - x/8) = 64
Next, we distribute the 16 into the parentheses:176 - 2x = 64
Then, we isolate the term with the variable x:-2x = 64 - 176-2x = -112
Finally, we solve for x:x = -112 / -2x = 56
Therefore, the solution to the second equation is x = 56.

Next, we isolate the term with the variable x:
240 / (x + 3) = 7 + 5
240 / (x + 3) = 12
Then, we cross multiply:
240 = 12(x + 3)
240 = 12x + 36
Next, we isolate the variable x:
12x = 240 - 36
12x = 204
x = 204 / 12
x = 17
Therefore, the solution to the first equation is x = 17.

We first simplify the second equation:
16*(11 - x/8) = 64
Next, we distribute the 16 into the parentheses:
176 - 2x = 64
Then, we isolate the term with the variable x:
-2x = 64 - 176
-2x = -112
Finally, we solve for x:
x = -112 / -2
x = 56
Therefore, the solution to the second equation is x = 56.
