Question

The solution of which of the following equation is neither a fraction nor an integer?

• A. $2x+6=0$
• B. $3x-5=0$
• C. $5x-8=x+4$
• D. $4x+7=x+2$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $4x+7=x+2$

In option A - 2x+6=0 hence $x=(-3)$ which is an integer.

In option B - 3x-5=0 hence $x=\frac{5}{3}$ which is a fraction

In option C - 5x-8=x+4 hence $x=3$ which is an integer

In option D - 4x+7=x+2 hence $x=\left(\frac{-5}{3}\right)$ which is neither a fraction nor an integer.

hence option$D$ is correct.
