so solving the equation or inequality.
(t)/(3) + (t)/(2) - 350 = 270would it be:t=564

so solving the equation or inequality. (t)/(3) + (t)/(2) - 350 = 270would it be:t-example-1

The value of t is 744

Here, we want to solve the given equation

We start by multiplying through by the lowest common multiple of 2 and 3

The lowest common multiple of 2 and 3 is 6

Thus, we have;


\begin{gathered} 6\text{ }*(t)/(3)\text{ + 6 }*\text{ }(t)/(2)\text{ -350(6) = 270(6)} \\ \\ 2t\text{ + 3t-2100 = 1620} \\ \\ 5t\text{ = 1620 + 2100} \\ \\ 5t\text{ = 3720} \\ \\ t\text{ = }(3720)/(5) \\ \\ t\text{ = 744} \end{gathered}
