Question

2 x minus 1 by 3 - 6 x minus 2 by 5 is equal to 1 by 3

Answer 1

Heya there,
Here is the answer you were looking for:
$\frac{2x - 1}{3} - \frac{6x - 2}{5} = \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ \frac{5(2x - 1) - 3(6x - 2)}{15} = \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ \frac{10x - 5 - 18x + 6}{15} = \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ \frac{ - 8x + 1}{15} = \frac{1}{3}$

On cross-multiplying

$3( - 8x + 1) = 15(1) \\ \\ - 24x + 3 = 15 \\ \\ - 24x = 15 - 3 \\ \\ - 24x = 12 \\ \\ x = \frac{12}{ - 24} \\ \\ x = \frac{1}{ - 2} \\ \\ x = - \frac{1}{2}$

Hope this helps!!!
