Answer:

theleangreenbear has the correct answer, but it could be reduced from

60 + 10x = 6 to

30 + 5x = 3

Step-by-step explanation: divide both sides by 2

Answer:


60+10x=6

Explanation:

Hi there!


4+\displaystyle (2)/(3) x=(2)/(5)

To get rid of the fraction
\displaystyle (2)/(3), multiply both sides of the equation by 3 (the denominator):


3(4+\displaystyle (2)/(3) x)=3((2)/(5))\\\\3*4+(3*2)/(3)x =(3*2)/(5) \\\\12+2x =(6)/(5)

To get rid of the fraction
\displaystyle (6)/(5), multiply both sides of the equation by 5 (the denominator):


\displaystyle 5(12+2x) =5((6)/(5))\\\\5*12+5*2x=(5*6)/(5) \\\\60+10x=6

I hope this helps!
