Question

Solve the following equation.
$\frac{2}{3}x=\frac{3}{8}x+\frac{7}{12}$.

Answer 1

$\begin{array}{c}\frac{2}{3}x=\frac{3}{8}x+\frac{7}{12}\\ \Rightarrow x\left[\frac{2}{3}-\frac{3}{8}\right]=\frac{7}{12}\\ \Rightarrow x\left[\frac{16-9}{24}\right]=\frac{7}{12}\\ \Rightarrow x\left[\frac{7}{24}\right]=\frac{7}{12}\\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{24}{12}\\ \Rightarrow x=2\end{array}$
