C3-36
the 3 is “c3” is an exponent btw!
Step 1: 6x - 2x - 5 = -6 + 21
Step 2: 6x - 2x - 5 = 15
Step 3: 4x - 5 = 15
The next step would be to add 5 to both sides of the equation.
so Step 3: 4x - 5 = 15 .......add 5 to both sides would make
Step 4: 4x = 20
So after the next step you would have 4x = 20
Hope this helps! :)
The LCM for 4 and 9 is 36
Here: Fraction = 3/5
Let, original fraction (before simplifying) = 3x/5x
Then, 3x + 5x = 40
8x = 40
x = 40/8
x = 5
So, 3x = 3(5) = 15 & 5(5) = 25
In short, Your Answer would be 15/25
Hope this helps!
