We have
Since, LCM of 3 and 5 is 15.
∴ The given equation is expressed as:
35x + 70 - (51-9x) = 90x - (20x + 10) - 75
35x + 70 -51 + 9x = 90x - 20x - 10 - 75
35x + 9x - 90x + 20x = -10 -75 + 51 - 70
64x - 90x = -155 + 51
-26x = -104
Thus, x = 4 is the solution of the given equation.
A number is such that it is as much greater than 65 as it is less than 91. Find the number.
The numerator of a fraction is 2 less than the denominator. If 1 is added to its denominator, it becomes ½. Find the fraction.
