Answer:

x = 7/6

Explanation:

Solve for x:

35/74 (4/3 + 21/(5 x)) - 4/5 = 23/15

Bring 35/74 (4/3 + 21/(5 x)) - 4/5 together using the common denominator 1110 x:

(2205 - 188 x)/(1110 x) = 23/15

Cross multiply:

15 (2205 - 188 x) = 25530 x

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

33075 - 2820 x = 25530 x

Subtract 25530 x + 33075 from both sides:

-28350 x = -33075

Divide both sides by -28350:

Answer: x = 7/6
