Question

solve the equation x/2-1/5 = x/3+1/4 ?

Answer 1

x/2-1/5=x/3+1/4
x/2-x/3=1/4+1/5
3x-2x/6=5+4/20
x/6=9/20
20x=54
x=54/20
x=27/10

Answer 2

$Given \: simple \: equation:\\</p><p>\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{4}$

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

$\implies \frac{3x-2x}{6}=\frac{5+4}{20}$

$\implies \frac{x}{6}=\frac{9}{20}$

$\implies x = \frac{9}{20}\times 6$

$\implies x = \frac{27}{10}$

$\implies x = 2.7$

Therefore,

$Value \: of \: x = 2.7$
