Question

What is the value of $10x$ in the equation $\left(\frac{x+1.7}{2}\right)-\left(\frac{x-2.3}{3}\right)=1$ ?
12(x+1.7)−13(x−2.3)=1

Answer 1

$\frac{1}{2}(x+1.7)\frac{-1}{3}(x-2.3)=1$

$\frac{x}{2}+0.85=1+\frac{x}{3}\frac{-2.3}{3}$

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{x}{3}=-0.85+1$ $\frac{-2.3}{3}$

$x=6(-0.85+1\frac{-2.3}{3})$

$x=6-\mathrm{4.6.}-5.1$

$x=-3.7$

$10x=-37$
