Question

Solve this equation X/2=(x+1)/5

Answer 1

Answer

x/2=(x+1)/5

Cross multiplying

(x) (5)=(x+1)(2)

5x=2x+2

5x-2x =2

3x=2

x=2/3

Answer 2

Answer:

heya!!

$\frac {x}{2}$ = $\frac{x + 1}{5}$

$\frac {x}{2} × 5$ = $x + 1$

$\frac{5x}{2}$ = $x + 1$

$5x$ = $(x + 1) × 2$

$5x$ = $2x + 2$

$5x - 2x$ = $2$

$3x$ =$2$

$x$ = $\frac {2}{3}$
