Question

Can someone be nice enough to help me with this problem please -> 3/4x+1/2=3/2

Answer 1

x=4/3

Answer 2

hint: multiply both sides by "4x"

Answer 3

they are all fractions

Answer 4

@sebaxtiangb

Answer 5

right... thus multiplying them by 4x, removes the denominator
and you'd end up with numerators

Answer 6

\(\bf \cancel{4x}\cdot \cfrac{3}{\cancel{4x}}+\cancel{4} x\cdot \cfrac{1}{\cancel{2}}=\cancel{4}x\cdot \cfrac{3}{\cancel{2}}\implies ?\)

Answer 7

Subtract 1/2 on both sides first.

Answer 8

\(\bf \cancel{4x}\cdot \cfrac{3}{\cancel{4x}}+\cancel{4} x\cdot \cfrac{1}{\cancel{2}}=\cancel{4}x\cdot \cfrac{3}{\cancel{2}}\implies 3+2x\cdot 1=2x\cdot 3
\\ \quad \\
3+2x=6x\implies ?\)

Answer 9

Then subtract the terms on the right sides. You can even simplify it.
