We have:
=2x+33−3x−24=1⇒4(2x+3)−3(3x−2)12=1⇒8x+12−9x+6=1×12⇒−x+18=12⇒−x=12−18[Transposing +18 to RHS]⇒−x=−6⇒x=6\phantom{=} \dfrac{2x + 3}{3}-\dfrac{3x - 2}{4} = 1 \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{4(2x + 3) - 3(3x - 2)}{12} = 1 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 8x + 12 - 9x + 6 = 1 \times 12 \\[1em] \Rightarrow -x + 18 = 12 \\[1em] \Rightarrow -x = 12 - 18 \quad \text{[Transposing +18 to RHS]} \\[1em] \Rightarrow -x = -6 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = 6 \\[1em]=32x+3−43x−2=1⇒124(2x+3)−3(3x−2)=1⇒8x+12−9x+6=1×12⇒−x+18=12⇒−x=12−18[Transposing +18 to RHS]⇒−x=−6⇒x=6
∴ x = 6
Check:
LHS=2x+33−3x−24LHS=153−164LHS=5−4LHS=1RHS=1\text{LHS} = \dfrac{2x + 3}{3} - \dfrac{3x - 2}{4} \\[1em] \phantom{\text{LHS}} = \dfrac{15}{3} - \dfrac{16}{4} \\[1em] \phantom{\text{LHS}} = 5 - 4 \\[1em] \phantom{\text{LHS}} = 1 \\[2em] \text{RHS} = 1LHS=32x+3−43x−2LHS=315−416LHS=5−4LHS=1RHS=1
Hence, LHS = RHS.

x - 24% of x = 38
x+52+x3=20\dfrac{x + 5}{2} + \dfrac{x}{3} = 202x+5+3x=20
3y−27−5y−84=114\dfrac{3y - 2}{7} - \dfrac{5y - 8}{4} = \dfrac{1}{14}73y−2−45y−8=141
x−23+x−34=x−12\dfrac{x-2}{3}+\dfrac{x-3}{4} = \dfrac{x-1}{2}3x−2+4x−3=2x−1
