x/2-3/5=3/2 ~ ok, I understand that I have to start off by determining the LCD, but I'm lost after that. I need to solve for x.

Question

anonymous · Answer

what's your LCD?

anonymous · Answer

I believe it's 10

anonymous · Answer

yes it is, now multiply this by entire equation like this:
$$10(x/2) - 10(3/5) = 10*3/2$$

anonymous · Answer

the equation reduces to this:
5x-6=15, 
can you proceed from here?

anonymous · Answer

your gonna hate me ~ but I'm still lost on the first stuff you posted. I'm 49 years old & this is my first ever algebra. I'm sorry

anonymous · Answer

OK, from first part of your equation, there is an LCD of 10 multiplied by x/2, right?

anonymous · Answer

yes

anonymous · Answer

I don't understand how to multiply x/2

anonymous · Answer

|dw:1342983481179:dw| well you just cancel by the 2 and it reduces as such
