Question

x+2015/5 + x+2016/4=x+2017/3 + x+2018/2

Answer 1

x+2015/5 + x+2016/4=x+2017/3 + x+2018/2

\(\Rightarrow\frac{x+2015}{5}+1+\frac{x+2016}{4}+1=\frac{x+2017}{3}+1+\frac{x+2018}{2}+1\)

\(\Rightarrow\frac{x+2020}{5}+\frac{x+2020}{4}=\frac{x+2020}{3}+\frac{x+2020}{2}\)

\(\Rightarrow\frac{x+2020}{5}+\frac{x+2020}{4}-\frac{x+2020}{3}-\frac{x+2020}{2}=0\)

\(\Rightarrow\left(x+2020\right)\left(\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2}\right)=0\)

\(\Rightarrow x+2020=0\).Do \(\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2}\ne0\)

\(\Rightarrow x=-2020\)
