What plus 1/4 equals 2/2?

Here we will show you how to calculate "what" in this sentence: "What plus 1/4 equals 2/2?" We start by making this word problem into an algebraic equation where "what" is the variable "x".

x + 1/4 = 2/2

To solve this equation, we want x alone on the left side of the equation so we start by subtracting 1/4 on both sides like this:

x + 1/4 - 1/4 = 2/2 - 1/4

x + 1/4 - 1/4 leaves x and 2/2 - 1/4 is 3/4 which means we end up with x = 3/4. Therefore, the answer to "What plus 1/4 equals 2/2?" is as follows:

3/4

It is always good to double-check your math to make sure you did it right. When we entered 3/4 for x in this equation x + 1/4 = 2/2, we get the following true equation which means our math is correct.

3/4 + 1/4 = 2/2
