Question

How do I find x in this problem, x/5-2/3=3/2

Answer 1

$⇒\frac{x}{5} - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{3}{2} \\ \frac{x}{5} = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{2}{3} \\ \frac{x}{5} = \frac{3 \times 3}{2 \times 3} + \frac{2 \times 2}{3 \times 2} \\ \frac{x}{3} = \frac{9 + 4}{6} \\ \frac{x}{3} = \frac{13}{6} \\ = \frac{13}{6} \times 3 \\ = \frac{13}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 38/6

Step-by-step explanation:

x/5 - 2/3 = 3/2

3x - 2x5/3x2 = 3/2

3x-10/6 = 3/2

2(3x-10) = 3x6

6x-20 = 18

6x = 18+20

6x =38

x =38/6 or x = 6.33
