Answer: c. x = -3

5(x - 8) = -55

⇔ 5x - 40 = -55

⇔ 5x = -55 + 40 = -15

⇔ x = -15/5

⇔ x = -3

Question:

What is the common denominator of $y+\frac{y-3}{3}$ in the complex fraction $\frac{y+\frac{y-3}{3}}{\frac{5}{y}+\frac{2}{3 y}}$

A) $3 y(y-3)$

B) $y(y-3)$

C) $3y$

D) $3$

Answer:

Option D : 3 is the common denominator

Explanation:

It is given that the complex fraction $\frac{y+\frac{y-3}{3}}{\frac{5}{y}+\frac{2}{3 y}}$

We need to determine the common denominator of $y+\frac{y-3}{3}$ from the complex fraction.

Let us consider the fraction $y+\frac{y-3}{3}$

To find the common denominator, let us take LCM.

Thus, rewriting the above fraction as,

$\frac{y}{1} +\frac{y-3}{3}$$

The LCM can be determined by multiplying the denominators.

Thus, we get,

$1\times3=3$

Thus, the common denominator is 3.

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
