Question

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

or

x-5 x-3 1
----- - ------- = -----
2 5 2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Solve :

(x−5)/2−(x−3)/5=1/2

Given (x−5)/2−(x−3)/5=1/2

Now by taking L.C.M for 5 and 2 is 10

⇒

10

(5(x−5)−2(x−3))

=1/2

By transposing the above equation we can write as

⇒(5x−25−2x+6)=10/2

⇒3x−19=5

Again by transposing

⇒3x=19+5=24

⇒x=24/3=8

Answer 2

Answer:
