Question

solve the following equation x+m-1/2=1-m-2/3​

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct option is

C

m=

5

7

We have m−

2

m−1

=1−

3

m−2

⇒

2

2m−m+1

=

3

3−m+2

....[Taking LCM on LHS and RHS]

⇒

2

m+1

=

3

5−m

⇒3(m+1)=2(5−m) ....[By\quad cross-multiplication]

⇒3m+3=10−2m

⇒3m+2m=10−3 ....[Transposing 3 to RHS and −2m to LHS]

⇒5m=7

⇒m=

5

7
