Question 693148
{{{x/4-x/9=5}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{36(x/cross(4)-x/cross(9))=36(5)}}} Multiply both sides by the LCD {{{36}}} to clear any fractions.



{{{9x-4x=180}}} Distribute and multiply.



{{{5x=180}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{x=(180)/(5)}}} Divide both sides by {{{5}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=36}}} Reduce.
