Question

2x\3 - x\5 = 3x\5 - 11\5
find and verify the calue of x

Answer 1

$\frac{2x}{3} - \frac{x}{5} = \frac{3x}{5} - \frac{11}{5} \\ \frac{(5 \times 2x) - 3x}{15} = \frac{3x - 11}{5} \\ \frac{10x - 3x}{15} = \frac{3x - 11}{5} \\ 5(10x - 3x) = 15(3x - 11) \\ 50x - 15x = 45x - 165 \\ 35x = 45x - 165 \\ 45x - 35x = 165 \\ 10x = 165 \\ x = \frac{165}{10} \\ x = 16.5$

I think it is the answer
