<PRE><B>Question 1145068</B>
1/3(4x-5)+6=3/4(3x+2)-1 

4/3x-5/3+6=9/4x+6/4-1 
12(4/3x-5/3+6)=12(9/4x+6/4-1) to  clear fractions multiply by 12
BTW this should have been your first step
16x-20+72=27x+18-12 ok
16x+52=27x+6 ok
-16x -16x
52=11x+6 ok
-6 -6
46/11=x ok
Is this correct?
46/11=x
Why are you unsure?</PRE>
