Question

solve the following equation x+5/6-x+1/9=x+3/4​

Answer 1

Answer:

Since, L.C.M. of denominators 6, 9 and 4 = 36

∴ (a + 5)/6 × 36 – (a + 1)/9 × 36 = (a + 3)/4 × 36

(Multiplying each term by 36)

⇒ 6(a + 5) – 4(a + 1) = 9(a + 3)

⇒ 6a + 30 – 4a – 4 = 9a + 27

⇒ 6a – 4a – 9a = 27 – 30 + 4

⇒ 6a – 13a = 1

⇒ -7a = 1

⇒ a = -(1/7)
