Answer» ong>✓ Question $\frac{6x - 2}{5} = \frac{2x - 1}{3} - \frac{1}{3}$ ✓ Solution $\frac{6x - 2}{5} = \frac{2x - 1}{3} - \frac{1}{3}$ $\longrightarrow \: \frac{6x - 2}{5} = \frac{2x - 1 - 1}{3}$ » LCM is 3 since the denominators are same in the RHS $\longrightarrow \: \frac{6x - 2}{5} = \frac{2x-2}{3}$ By cross MULTIPLICATION , $\longrightarrow3(6x - 2) = 5(2x-2)$ $\longrightarrow18x - 6 = 10x-10$ $\longrightarrow18x - 10x = 6-10$ $\longrightarrow8x = -4$ $x = \frac{-4}{8} = \frac{-1}{2}$ Therefore the value of x = - 1/2 = -0.5 ______________________ » More info : LINEAR equation is expressed in the form of ax+b = 0 where it has ONE variable . eg, 4m - 3 = 7M + 2 » 4m - 7m = 2 + 3 › -3m = 5 → m = - 5/ 3
