Question

2/3x - 3/2x = 5/12

Answer 1

\(x\left(\frac{2}{3}-\frac{3}{2}\right)=\frac{5}{12}\)

\(x.\frac{-5}{6}=\frac{5}{12}\)

\(x=\frac{5}{12}:\frac{-5}{6}\)

\(x=\frac{5}{12}.\frac{-6}{5}\)

\(x=\frac{-1}{2}\)

Answer 2

2/3x - 3/2x = 5/12

x ( 2/3 - 3/2) = 5/12

x -5/6 = 5 /12

x = 5/12 : -5/6

x = 5/12 x 6/-5

x = 1/-2
