Question

x/3+1=2x/5 find plz plz

Answer 1

Answer:

x / 3+1 = 2x / 5

Now doing cross multiplication , we get

5x = 2x ( 3x + 1)

5x = 6x² + 2x

6x ² + 2x = 5x

6x² + 2x -5x = 0

6x² - 3x = 0

[Taking 3x as common]

3x ( 2x - 1 ) = 0

so, either

3x ( 2x-1) = 0

3x = 0/2x -1

3x = 0

x = 0/ 3

x = 0

or

3x ( 2x - 1) = 0

2x - 1 = 0/ 3x

2x - 1 = 0

2x = 1

x = 1/2

Answer 2

Answer:
