⇒
Cross multiplying for easier calculation:
⇒
Multiplying the terms inside the curly brackets:
⇒
Opening the parentheses,
⇒
⇒
Taking 2 as a common from both sides & cancelling it, we have,
⇒
Now shifting the terms to one side of the equation:
⇒
⇒
Now find the possible values of x by Middle term factorisation,
⇒
⇒
⇒
Equating to 0, We get
⇒
Hence:-
- The value of x after solving: 5/2 or 5
