Question

3x/4 - 2x+5/3 = 5/2
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3x}{4} - \frac{2x + 5}{3} = \frac{5}{2}$

$\frac{3x \times 3 - 4(2x + 5)}{4 \times 3} = \frac{5}{2}$

$\frac{9x - 8x - 20}{12} = \frac{5}{2}$

$\frac{x - 20}{12} = \frac{5}{2}$

$2(x - 20) = 5 \times 12$

$2x - 40 = 60$

$2x = 60 + 40$

$2x = 100$

$x = \frac{100}{2}$

$x = 50$
