Question

solve
$\frac{3x + 1}{2} + \frac{2x + 5}{3} = 26$
​

Answer 1

Answer:

$x = 11$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3x + 1}{2} + \frac{2x + 5}{3} = 26$

$\frac{3(3x + 1) + 2(2x + 5)}{6} = 26$

$\frac{9x + 3 + 4x + 10}{6} = 26$

$\frac{9x + 4x + 3 + 10}{6} = 26$

$13x + 13 = 26 \times 6$

$13x + 13 = 156$

$13x = 156 - 13$

$13x = 143$

$x = \frac{143}{13}$

$x = 11$
