Question

Find and correct the errors in the mathematical statement $\frac{3x^2}{3x^2}=0$.

Answer 1

Find and correct errors in the given statement.

An equation is a mathematical expression of equality between two algebraic expressions that have equal values.

Given, $\frac{3x^2}{3x^2}=0$

On solving L.H.S, we get,

$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{3x^2}{3x^2} \\ =1 \end{gathered}$$

But, it is given that R.H.S $=0$

Thus, L.H .S.$\ne$ R.H.S.

So,for correct statement we need to replace $0\text{with}1$in RHS.

Hence, the correct statement is $\frac{\mathbf{3}{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}}{\mathbf{3}{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}}\mathbf{=}\mathbf{}\mathbf{1}$.
