1. (3x-2)/4+1=5 2. (3x-2)/4+1-1=5-1 3. (3x-2)/4=4 4. (3x-2)/4+2=4+2 5. this is the mistake, wecan't just add them because the fractions aren't the same (3x-2)/4 plus 2/1, the bottom numbers areen't the same
what should be done is go back to step 4 and mltiply both sides by 4, don't add 2 results in 5. 3x-2=16 6. 3x=18 7. x=6
this should be easy cause the 64 is bigger, so the parts are smaller. 192 divided by 64 is 3. 192 divided by 12 is 16. multiply, Yada yada… you get 64 is better!
