Question

X/2 - 1/5 = x/3 + 1/4 linear equation

Answer 1

x = 2.7 or 27/10.

Explanation:

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

Multiply through by the LCD of 2, 5, 3 and 4 which is 60:

30x - 12 = 20x + 15

10x = 27

x = 2.7

Answer 2

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

(3x-2x)/6 = (5+4)/20

3x-2x = (9/20)*6

x = 54/20

x = 2.7
