Question

3x/7 - 2=15

I got 119/3 and it says I got it partially right.. The final answer does have a fraction in it.

Answer 1

is it
\[\frac{ 3x }{ 7 } - 2 =15\]
???

Answer 2

yeah

Answer 3

if its that then the first thing u need to do is add 2 on both sides...

Answer 4

I know how to solve it.. I just don't know why they considered my answer only partially correct

Answer 5

119/3 is correct :)

If you only got partial credit,
then perhaps they want the final answer written as a `mixed number`.

Answer 6

see u need to write 119/3 as
\[39\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\]

Answer 7

ooh ok thanks!
