Question 392926
{{{x/4-3x/2=-1/2}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{4(x/cross(4)-3x/cross(2))=4(-1/cross(2))}}} Multiply both sides by the LCD {{{4}}} to clear any fractions.



{{{x-6x=-2}}} Distribute and multiply.



{{{-5x=-2}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{x=(-2)/(-5)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-5}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=2/5}}} Reduce.
