Solve the following equation :-
Removing the brackets,
Let's add x/3 and 1 first.
The LCM of 3 and 1 is 3, so multiplying the fractions using their denominators,
On simplifying,
Transposing 3 from RHS to LHS, changing it's sign,
Multiplying x/2 with 3,
Transposing 3 from RHS to LHS, changing it's sign,
Now let's subtract 3 from 3x/2.
The LCM of 2 and 1 is 2, so multiplying the fractions using their denominators,
On simplifying,
Transposing 2 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign,
Multiplying x with 2,
Transposing 6 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign,
Transposing 2x from RHS to LHS, changing it's sign,
Subtracting 2x from 3x,
- The value of x is 6.
--------------------
To check our answer, let's put 6 in the place of x and see whether LHS = RHS.
LHS
Removing the brackets,
Reducing the fraction,
RHS
Removing the brackets,
Let's add 6/3 and 1.
The LCM of 3 and 1 is 3, so multiplying the fractions using their denominators,
On simplifying,
Adding 3 to 6,
Reducing the fraction,
Since LHS = RHS,
Hence verified!!
