Question

Complete the steps for x.
5/6x- 1/5x =19
5/6x- 1/5x =19
?/30x=19

Answer 1

5/6x- 1/5x =19

5/6x- 1/5x =19

?/30x=19

19/30x = 19

x = 19 / 19/30

x = 19 * 30/19

x = 30

Answer 2

x = 30

Explanation:

5/6x- 1/5x =19

Get a common denominator of 30

5/6x * 5/5 - 1/5x * 6/6 = 19

25/30x - 6/30x = 19

19/30x = 19

Multiply each side by 30/19

19/30x * 30/19 = 30/19 * 19

x = 30
