hi,
if the equation given is as below:
x%2B4%2F5=x%2B5%2F7
then, we can see that when we subtract x from both sides of the equation we get:
cross%28x%29+%2B+4%2F5+-+cross%28x%29+=+cross%28x%29+%2B+5%2F7+-cross%28x%29+
all the x-terms cancel out.
we are left with
+4%2F5+=+5%2F7+ , which is not true.
Thus, we have NO SOLUTION as the answer.
