Question

8 - 3x upon 5 x + 31 equal to 2 upon 3 please solve this answer

Answer 1

8-3x/5x+31=2/3
cross multiply
3(8-3x)=2(5x+31)
24-9x=10x+62
-9x-10x=62-24
-19x=38
x=-38/19
x=-2
-2 is the answer hope its helpful

Answer 2

I mean cross multiple of 2 upon 3
3 (8-3x)=2(5x+31)
24-9x=10x+62
-9x-10=62-24
-19x = 38
x = 38/19
x = 2
I think answer is 2
