algebra question! solve k +1/2k-1=4/5?

( k + 1 ) / ( 2 k - 1 ) = 4/ 5 is how question SHOULD be shown

5k + 5 = 8 k - 4

- 3 k = - 9

k = 3

OPTION a)

PS
Remember to use brackets when presenting questions.

k + (1/2)k - 1 = 4/5

2k/2 + k/2 = 4/5 + 5/5

3k/2 = 9/5

3k = 18/5

k = 18/15

k = 6/5

k = 1.2

i get the same answer also.

k=4.43 get a common denominator do the required math goo!d luck

same
1.2

Is there any more information?

im sorrie!i've got the same answer as you!

k + 1/2(k) - 1 = 4/5
k + k/2 = 1 + 4/5
2(k + k/2) = 2(5/5 + 4/5)
2(k) + 2(k/2) = 2(9/5)
2k + k = 18/5
3k = 18/5
k = (18/5)/3
k = (18/5)(1/3)
k = 6/5 (1.2)

that was very close. I tis actually quite easy! you get the 2.5 by I/2ing the K-1+4/5, which is 0.5, then times it by optimus prime to get 5, and then times that by a further 100 to get 500, then realise you don't have a clue and guess!

i got 2.5
but i also havent taken algebra in like 6 yrs

1.2 is correct

I also get 6/5, or 1.2. There is a possibility that there is a misprint, that we are both wrong, or that you have miscopied the problem. All three of those things are likely.
