Question

Can you help me solve?
10/3x + 4/3 = 7 + x/2x

Answer 1

First find common denominators to make each side a single fraction, and then cross multiply. Alternatively, multiply each side by \(x\).

Answer 2

lcm of 3x,3 and 2x is 6x
multiply through by 6x:
20 + 8x = 42x + 3x
37x = 20
x = 20/37

Answer 3

is it x= 17/5x?

Answer 4

cwrw238,
But what does 20/37 have in common? Because the multiple choices are:
x= 1/3
x= 17/5x
x= 1/5
x= 1/6 (is this the answer)?

Answer 5

lets make sure i've have got the correct question
maybe the right side of equation is (7+ x)/2x?

Answer 6

the way its been written is ambiguous

Answer 7

yes, 10/3x + 4/3 equals 7 + x/ 2x

Answer 8

ok so

20 + 8x = 21 + 3x
5x = 1
x = 1/5

Answer 9

thank you so much !
You were very helpful while still having the patience

Answer 10

its best to write it as (x+7) to avoid confusion

Answer 11

lol - i have my grandfathers patience

Answer 12
