Answer 1

The value of x that could be used to clear fractions in the equation is 32/21. option B

What is the value of x?

`(7)/(2)x - (1)/(3) = 5`

Add 1/3 to both sides

`(7)/(2)x = 5 + (1)/(3)`

`(7)/(2)x = ((15 + 1))/(3)`

`(7)/(2)x = (16)/(3)`

Divide both sides by 7/2

`= (16)/(3) / (7)/(2)`

Multiply by the reciprocal of 7/2

`= (16)/(3) * (2)/(7)`

x = 32/21

Therefore, x equals 32/21
