Answer:

C

Explanation:

-x+3/7=2x-27/5

Just bring all the x together, ad all the numbers together

-x - 3x = - 3/7 - 27/5

-4x = - 15/ 35 - 189/35

-4x = - 204 /35

4x = 204/35

x = 204 / 140

x = 1.457

Your this question is a little weird, but the best bet would be C, since C = 1.3333

Hey are you sure you entered the numbers correctly the correct answer should be 68/35. Can you check the numbers again maybe you’re missing it...
