Question 182055


{{{(3/4)x-5=(2/3)x}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{12((3/cross(4))x-5)=12((2/cross(3))x)}}} Multiply both sides by the LCD {{{12}}} to clear any fractions.



{{{9x-60=8x}}} Distribute and multiply.



{{{9x=8x+60}}} Add {{{60}}} to both sides.



{{{9x-8x=60}}} Subtract {{{8x}}} from both sides.



{{{x=60}}} Combine like terms on the left side.
