Question
$\frac{2\text{x}-1}{5}=\frac{3\text{x}+1}{3}$
✓
Answer
Given, $\frac{2\text{x}-1}{5}=\frac{3\text{x}+1}{3}$$3(2x - 1) = 5(3x + 1)$
$6x - 3 = 15x + 5$
$6x - 15x = 3 + 5$
$-9x = 8$
$\frac{-9\text{x}}{-9}=\frac{8}{-9}$ $\text{x}=\frac{-8}{9}$
$6x - 3 = 15x + 5$
$6x - 15x = 3 + 5$
$-9x = 8$
$\frac{-9\text{x}}{-9}=\frac{8}{-9}$ $\text{x}=\frac{-8}{9}$
