Answer:

Explanation:

Solution

3x - 3 2x - 2

===== = ====== Cross Multiply

5 4

4(3x - 3) = 5(2x - 2) Remove the brackets. Distributive Property

12x - 12 = 10x - 10 Subtract 10 x from both sides

12x-10x - 12 = 10x-10x - 10 Combine

2x - 12 = - 10 Add 12 to both sides

2x-12+12 = -10 + 12 Combine

2x = 2 Divide by 2

2x/2 = 2/2

Answer

x = 1
