Question

Solve fraction numerator 4 x over denominator 5 end fraction minus straight x equals x over 10 minus 9 over 2

hintHint:

○ Addition and subtraction of fractions.
○ First make denominator equal.
○ Then perform basic operation to get value of x.

The correct answer is: x = 15


    ○ Given:
    Equation fraction numerator 4 x over denominator 5 end fraction minus straight x equals x over 10 minus 9 over 2
    ○ Step 1:
    ○ Make denominator equal:
    fraction numerator 4 x over denominator 5 end fraction minus fraction numerator left parenthesis x right parenthesis times 5 over denominator 5 end fraction equals x over 10 minus fraction numerator left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis times 5 over denominator left parenthesis 2 right parenthesis times 5 end fraction
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow fraction numerator 4 x over denominator 5 end fraction minus fraction numerator 5 x over denominator 5 end fraction equals x over 10 minus 45 over 10
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow fraction numerator 4 x minus 5 x over denominator 5 end fraction equals fraction numerator x minus 45 over denominator 10 end fraction
    ○ Step 2:
    Cross multiply :
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow fraction numerator 4 x minus 5 x over denominator 5 end fraction equals fraction numerator x minus 45 over denominator 10 end fraction
    rightwards double arrow(4x - 5x)  10  = (x - 45)   5
    rightwards double arrow-10x  = 5x - 225
    rightwards double arrow225  = 5x + 10x
    rightwards double arrow225  = 15x
    rightwards double arrowx = 225 over 15
    rightwards double arrowx = 15
    • Final Answer:
    x = 15
