...Oh, do you mean (X + 4)/4?


Well, that's a bit different, then.


However, I don't think that we have enough information to give an answer. The question can be restated as:

X/4 + 1 = A/5

However, that's two unknowns and only one (usable) equation, so good luck finding a solution.


Do you, perhaps, mean a question like this:
(X + 4)/4 = (Y + A)/5

I don't believe that that is solvable either, though. (three unknowns, one equation.)

So, were you given any more information?



Edit: Also, how is this geometry? It seems to be just algebra.
