4/5x + 4/3 = 2x....there are 2 ways to do this...one with fractions, one without.
with :
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x
4/3 = 2x - 4/5x
4/3 = 10/5x - 4/5x
4/3 = 6/5x
4/3 * 5/6 = x
20/18 = x
10/9 = x
without :
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x....multiply by common denominator of 15
12x + 20 = 30x
20 = 30x - 12x
20 = 18x
20/18 = x
10/9 = x
Subtract 7 both sides
Subtract 9x both side
They cancel out
At the end you divide it
