Rearrange this formula to make x the subject?

Question

a = b + 5x/8 

Answer 1

[a = b + 5x/8]8

8a = 8b + 5x

8a - 8b = 5x

........8a - 8b........... 8(a - b)

x = -------------- or  ----------------- answer//

..........5  .................... 5

Answer 2

a = b + 5x/8

a - b = 5x/8

8(a - b)/5 = x

Answer 3

a=b+5x/8

a-b=5x/8

8(a-b)=5x

(8(ab))/5=x<

(8/5)*ab=x<

1.6ab=x<

Answer 4

a = b + 5x/8

x = 8/5(a - b) 

Answer 5

It is: x = 8(a-b)/5 => (8a-8b)/5 or x = 1.6a-1.6b

Answer 6

as written:

a = b + 5x/8

Subtract b from both sides:

a - b = 5x/8

Then multiply both halves by (8/5):

(8/5)(a - b) = x

Answer 7

a = b + 5x/8

8a = 8b + 5x

5x = 8a - 8b

x = (8/5)(a-b) ...........ANS

Answer 8

you really have to learn simple algebra

a = b + 5x/8

8a = 8b + 5x

5x = 8a – 8b

x = (8a – 8b) / 5

or

x = (8/5)(a – b)
