Question
$\text{x}-\frac35=\frac75$
✓
Answer
$\text{x}-\frac35=\frac75$
Adding $\frac35$ to both sides, we get
$\Rightarrow\text{x}-\frac{3}{5}+\frac35=\frac{7}{5}+\frac35$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{7}{5}+\frac{3}{5}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{10}{5}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=2$
Verification:
Substituting x = 2 in L.H.S., we get
$\text{L.H.S.}=2-\frac{3}{5}=10-\frac35=\frac75$ and $\text{R.H.S.}=\frac75$
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, verified.
Adding $\frac35$ to both sides, we get
$\Rightarrow\text{x}-\frac{3}{5}+\frac35=\frac{7}{5}+\frac35$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{7}{5}+\frac{3}{5}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{10}{5}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=2$
Verification:
Substituting x = 2 in L.H.S., we get
$\text{L.H.S.}=2-\frac{3}{5}=10-\frac35=\frac75$ and $\text{R.H.S.}=\frac75$
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, verified.
