Question

solve for x: (x+2)/3 - (x+1)/5 = (x-3)/4 - 1​

Answer 1

Answer:19

Step-by-step explanation:

On taking LCM

5x+10-3x-3/15=x-3-4/4

2x+7/15=x-7/4

On cross multiplying

4(2x+7)=15(x-7)

8x+28=15x-105

28+105=15x-8x

133=7x

133/7=x

19=x

Answer 2

Answer:

$\Huge\mathfrak\purple{Solution:-}$

{\frac{x + 2 }{3} - {\frac{x + 1 }{5} = { \frac{x - 3}{4} - 1

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 60 LCM of 3, 5 , 4 we get
