Question

Solve ( x + 3 ) / 4 = ( 2x - 3 ) / 5
​

Answer 1

(x+3)/4=(2x-3)/5

Cross multiplying

5(x+3)= (2x-3)4

5x+15=8x-12

15-12=8x-5x

3=3x

x=1

Hope it helps!!

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf : \implies \frac{(x + 3)}{4} = \frac{(2x - 3)}{5} \\ \sf \: : \implies \: 5(x + 3) = 4(2x - 3)\\ \sf \: : \implies \: 5x + 15 = 8x - 12\\ \sf \: : \implies \: 15 + 12 = 8x - 5x\\ \sf \: : \implies \: 27 = 3x\\ \sf \: : \implies \: x = { \cancel{\frac{27}{3}}} \\ \sf \: : \implies \: x = 9 \: ans.$
