Question

1/5(x)-2/3=4/3 what the solution for x

Answer 1

x = 10

Explanation:

`(1)/(5)x-(2)/(3)= (4)/(3)\\\\`

Add 2/3 to both sides

`(1)/(5)x-(2)/(3)+(2)/(3)=(4)/(3)+(2)/(3)\\\\\\(1)/(5)x=(6)/(3)\\\\\\(1)/(5)x=2\\\\`

Multiply both sides by 5

`5*(1)/(5)x=2*5\\`

x = 10

Answer 2

x=10

Explanation:

1/5(x)-2/3=4/3

Add 2/3 to each side

1/5(x)-2/3+ 2/3=4/3+2/3

1/5x = 6/3

1/5 x = 2

Multiply each side by 5

1/5x *5 = 2*5

x = 10
