Answer:

Step 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Leonardo is solving the equation 4 (x minus one-fifth) = 2 and two-thirds. His work is shown. Where is his error?

Given :

4(x - 1/5) = 2 2/3

Open the bracket

4x - 4/5 = 2 2/3

Add 4/5 to both sides

4x - 4/5 + 4/5 = 8/3 + 4/5

Lcm of 3 and 5 = 15

4x = (40 + 12) / 15

4x = 40/15 + 12/15

4x = 52/15

Multiply by 1/4

4x * 1/4 = 52/15 * 1/4

x = 52 / 60

x = 13 / 15

Hence, the error is in step 3

15/5 * 3 = 12
