Solve (question no. 2-22) for x : a + 5/6 - a + 1/9 = a + 3/4

Question

KnowledgeBoat · Accepted Answer

Since L.C.M. of denominators 6, 9 and 4 = 36, multiply each term by 36 to get: ⇒ 6(a \+ 5) \- 4(a \+ 1) = 9(a \+3) ⇒ (6a \+ 30) \- (4a \+ 4) = (9a \+ 27) ⇒ 6a \+ 30 \- 4a \- 4 = 9a \+ 27 ⇒ 2a \+ 26 = 9a \+ 27 ⇒ 2a - 9a = 27 - 26 ⇒ - 7a = 1 ⇒ a = - Hence, the value of a is .
