Question
Solve : $5 \frac{2}{3}- z =2 \frac{1}{2}$
✓
Answer
$5 \frac{2}{3}- z =2 \frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{17}{3}- z =\frac{5}{2}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{17}{3}-\frac{5}{2}= z$
$\Rightarrow 6 \times z =\frac{17}{3} \times 6-\frac{5}{2} \times 6($ Multiply both side by $6 )$
$\Rightarrow 6 z =34-15$
$\Rightarrow 6 z =19$
$\Rightarrow z =\frac{19}{6}$
$\Rightarrow z =3 \frac{1}{6}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{17}{3}- z =\frac{5}{2}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{17}{3}-\frac{5}{2}= z$
$\Rightarrow 6 \times z =\frac{17}{3} \times 6-\frac{5}{2} \times 6($ Multiply both side by $6 )$
$\Rightarrow 6 z =34-15$
$\Rightarrow 6 z =19$
$\Rightarrow z =\frac{19}{6}$
$\Rightarrow z =3 \frac{1}{6}$
