Question

Solve: x/ 2 ‒ 1 /5 = x /3 + 1/ 4

Answer 1

Answer:

27/10 or 2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

x/2-1/5 = x/3+1/4

x/2-x/3 = 1/4+1/5

3x-2x/6 = 5+4/20

x/6 = 9/20

X = 9*6/20

x=9*3/10

x=27/10

Answer 2

Answer:

Hi there, here we have,

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{5}= \frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{4}$

=>  $\frac{5x}{10}-\frac{2}{10}=\frac{4x}{12}+\frac{3}{12}$

=>  $\frac{5x-2}{10}=\frac{4x+3}{12}$

=>  $\frac{5x-2}{5}=\frac{4x+3}{6}$

=>  $6(5x-2) = 5(4x+3)$

=>  $30x-12=20x+15$

=>  $30x-20x = 15+12$

=>  $10x=27$

=>  $x=\frac{27}{10}$

Hence we have the answer.

Hope this helps
