Question

solve the following equation 4-5x/6-1-2x/3=13/42​

Answer 1

multiply whole equation by 42

7(4-5x)-14(1-2x)=12

28-35x-14+28x=13

-7x+14-13=0

X=1/7

Answer 2

4-5x/6-1-2x/3=13/42

or, 4-5x=13/42×6-1-2x/3

or,3(4-5x)=(13/42)×(6-1-2x)

or, 12-15x=65-26x

or, -15x+26x=65-12

or,9x=53

or,x=53/9.
