Question

solve this 5x/3-7=3x/2-3

Answer 1

5x/3-7=3x/2-3

10x-42=9x-18

10x-9x=-18+42

x=24

Answer 2

Given -

$\frac{5x}{3} - 7 = \frac{3x}{2} - 3$

While solving these types of ques, we have to combine the like terms.

So,

$\frac{5x}{3} - \frac{3x}{2} = - 3 + 7$


LCM of 3 and 2 = 6


$\frac{5x(2) - 3x(3)}{6} = 4 \\ \\ \\ \frac{10x - 9x}{6} = 4 \\ \\ \\ \frac{x}{6} = 4 \\ \\ x = 4 \times 6 \\ \\ x = 24$
