Question

Solve the equation
1/5(x-12)=1/4(x-15)

Answer 1

its better to multiply whole equation by 100
5x + 8(100-x) = 560
5x + 800 - 8x = 560
3x = 800 - 560

Answer 2

3x = 240
x = 80

Answer 3

could you also assist with this question? 1/5(x-12)=1/4(x-15)

Answer 4

\[1/5(x-12)=1/4(x-15) \]? this one?

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

\[\frac{ 1 }{ 5\left( x-12 \right) } - \frac{ 1 }{ 4\left( x-15 \right) } = 0\]
\[\frac{ 4x-60-5x+60 }{ 20(x-12)(x-15) } = 0\]
now you can solve ;)
