Solve d- 1/4 = 3/8 d

Evaluate

d - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{8} d

Move the variable to the left side

d - \frac{1}{4} - \frac{3}{8} d = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

\frac{5}{8} d - \frac{1}{4} = 0

Move the constant to the right side

\frac{5}{8} d = 0 + \frac{1}{4}

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

\frac{5}{8} d = \frac{1}{4}

Multiply by the reciprocal

\frac{5}{8} d \times \frac{8}{5} = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{8}{5}

Multiply

d = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{8}{5}

Solution

More Steps

d = \frac{2}{5}

Alternative Form

d = 0.4
