    Step-by-step explanation:

    3x + 4/5 = 7 - 2x

    Multiply each term by 5

    15x + 4 = 35 - 10x

    15x + 10x = 35 - 4

    25x = 31

    x = 31/25

    x = 1 6/25

    x = 1.24

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First step is to move the variable to one side. To do that, the smallest variable needs to be subtracted or added.

    3x+4/5 = 7-2x

    +2x + 2x

    Now that it has been moved to one side, isolate the variable. Subtract 4/5 to both sides.

    5x+4/5 = 7

    -4/5 - 4/5

    (4/5 is 0.80, so subtract 0.80 from 7)

    5x = 6.2

    Now divide 5 to both sides.

    5x=6.2

    5 5

    x = 1.24
