Question

if x/2 - x/3 =5 then find the value of x​

Answer 1

Answer:

x/2 - x/3 = 5

LCM OF 2 AND 3 is 6

x/ 6 = 5

x = 5×6

x = 30.

Answer 2

$\sf\huge\bold{\underline{\underline{{Solution}}}}$

$\sf \longmapsto \dfrac{x}{2} - \dfrac{x}{3} = 5$

First we take LCM of 2 and 3 from the given equation.

Hence,it is clearly shown that LCM of 2 and 3 is 6.

$\sf \longmapsto \dfrac{3 \times x - 2 \times x}{6} = 5$

$\sf \longmapsto \dfrac{3x - 2x}{6} = 5$

$\sf \longmapsto \dfrac{x}{6} = 5$

Now,we will do cross multiply to both sides .

Note there is one in the denominator of 5.

$\sf \longmapsto \: x \times 1 = 6\times 5$

$\sf \longmapsto { \bold{x = 30}}$

Check

$\sf \longmapsto \dfrac{x}{2} - \dfrac{x}{3} = 5$

$\sf \longmapsto \dfrac{30}{2} - \dfrac{30}{3} = 15 - 10 = 5$
