Step-by-step explanation:
We have
, (2x-1)/3 – (6x-2)/5 = 1/3
By taking LCM for 3 and 5
which is 15 ((2x-1)×5)/15 – ((6x-2)×3)/15 = 1/3
(10x – 5)/15 – (18x – 6)/15 = 1/3
(10x – 5 – 18x + 6)/15 = 1/3
(-8x + 1)/15 = 1/3
By using cross-multiplication
we get,
(-8x + 1)3 = 15 -24x + 3
= 15 -24x = 15 – 3 -24x = 12 x
= -12/24 = -1/2
∴ x = -1/2
