Question

x/5+2/6=x/3-1 please solve it​

Answer 1

Answer: x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

x/5+2/6=x/3-1

Multiply both sides of the equation by 30, the least common multiple of 5,6,3.

6x+5×2=10x−30

Multiply 5 and 2 to get 10.

6x+10=10x−30

Subtract 10x from both sides.

6x+10−10x=−30

Combine 6x and −10x to get −4x.

−4x+10=−30

Subtract 10 from both sides.

−4x=−30−10

Subtract 10 from −30 to get −40.

−4x=−40

Divide both sides by −4.

x=  

−4

−40

​  

 

Divide −40 by −4 to get 10.

x=10

Answer 2

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

x/5 +2/6 = x/3 -1

6x+10/30 = x-3/3

3(6x+10) = 30(x-3)

18x+30 = 30x-90

90+30 = 30x+18x

120 = 48x

x = 120/48

x = 2.5
