The answer is a = \frac{4}{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>1. Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction</em>

To find the numerator, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator to it.

The denominator remains the same.

So, 2\frac{2}{3} will be \frac{8}{3}

<em>2. Now the equation is,</em>

\frac{3}{2} a - \frac{4}{3} a = \frac{10}{3} + \frac{8}{3} a

<em>3. Take LCM on both sides. </em>

For the left side, multiply the first fraction by \frac{3}{3} and multiply the second fraction by \frac{2}{2}

\frac{3*3}{2*3} a - \frac{4*3}{3*3} a = \frac{10+8a}{3}

<em>4. Solve by making a the subject</em>

\frac{9a-8a}{6} = \frac{10+8a}{3}

\frac{a}{6} = \frac{10+8a}{3}

\frac{3a}{6} =10+8a

\frac{a}{2} = 10 + 8a

a = 2(10 + 8a)

a = 20 + 16a

a-16a = 20

-15a = 20

a = \frac{20}{-15}

a = \frac{4}{-3}

Therefore, the answer is a = \frac{4}{-3}
