The correct answer should be 8/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really? i dont think so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6 times 2/3=4, 4-1=3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cross-multiply- \[\frac{ 6x-1 }{ 5 }\] (6x−1)*(1)=(3)*(5) 6x−1=15 Add 1 to both sides. 6x−1+1=15+1 6x=16 Step 3: Divide both sides by 6. \[\frac{ 6x }{ 6 }=\frac{ 16}{ 6 }\] x= 8/3

\[\frac{ 6x-1 }{ 5 }=\frac{ 3 }{ 1}\] ****
