Question

8. Solve the following linear equations. x/2 - 1/5 = x/3 + 1/4

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x/2 - x/3 = 1/4 + 1/5

(3x-2x)/6 = (5+4)/20

x/6 = 9/20

x = 54/20 = 27/10 = 2.7

Answer 2

Answer:

X/2 - 1/5 =x/3 +1/4

5x - 2/10 =4x +3/12

12(5x-2)=10(4x+3)

60x-24=40x+30

60x-40x=30+24

20x=54

X=54/20

=27/10
