Question

3 1/2 - 1 1/3 x x= 1

Answer 1

The value of x for the given expression is
`(15)/(8)`

Explanation:

Given as :

The expression is written

3
`(1)/(2)` - 1
`(1)/(3)` × x = 1

Or, 1
`(1)/(3)` × x = 3
`(1)/(2)` - 1

Or,
`((1* 3) + 1)/(3)` × x =
`((3* 2) + 1)/(2)` - 1

Or,
`(4)/(3)` × x =
`(7)/(2)` - 1

Or,
`(4)/(3)` × x =
`(7-2)/(2)`

Or,
`(4)/(3)` × x =
`(5)/(2)`

∴ x =
`((5)/(2))/((4)/(3))`

Or, x =
`(5* 3)/(2* 4)`

I.e x =
`(15)/(8)`

So, The value of x =
`(15)/(8)`

Hence The value of x for the given expression is
`(15)/(8)` Answer
