We have,
2(x-1/8) - 3/5 x = 55/4
Step 1 :
2x - 1/4 - 3/5 x = 55/4
Step 2 :
7/5x - 1/4 = 55/4
Step 3 :
7/5x - 1/4 + 1/4 = 55/4 + 1/4
7/5x = 56/4
Step 4:
x = 10
Hence, Rahul used the addition property of equality in Step 3.

Rahul solved the equation 2(x – 1/8)-3/5x=55/4
2x-2/8-3/5x=55/4
2x- 3/5x=55/4+2/8
(10x-3x)/5=(110+2)/8
7x/5=112/8
7x=5*14
x=70/7
x=10
