Question

solve 1/3x+4/5=2/15​

Answer 1

Answer:

= 1/3x+4/5 = 2/15

= 1/3x = 2/15-4/5

= 1/3x = -2/3

= x = -2/3×3/1

= x = -2

Answer 2

Concept to be used:

• If we use the BODMAS on both sides, the equation is true.
• To find x, we need to make the coefficient 1.

Multiplication on both Sides

• $\sf3\times\frac{1}{3} x+3\times\frac{4}{5} =3\times\frac{2}{15}$

Now

• $\sf {x\timesx+\frac{12}{5} =\frac{2}{5}}$

Subtraction on both Sides

[In a different word, transposing the sides]

• $\sf{x=-\frac{10}{5}}$

Therefore, the solution is $\sf{x=-2}$.
