Question

Solution of the equation 3x/5+1=4x/15+7

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{3x}{5}$ + 1 = $\frac{4x}{15}$ + 7 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

$\frac{3x}{5}$ = $\frac{4x}{15}$ + 6

Multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions

9x = 4x + 90 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5x = 90 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 18
