Solve 2x-3/4+x-1/2=5-x/2

Evaluate

2 x - \frac{3}{4} + x - \frac{1}{2} = 5 - \frac{x}{2}

Calculate the sum or difference

More Steps

3 x - \frac{5}{4} = 5 - \frac{x}{2}

Multiply both sides of the equation by LCD

(3 x - \frac{5}{4}) \times 4 = (5 - \frac{x}{2}) \times 4

Simplify the equation

More Steps

12 x - 5 = (5 - \frac{x}{2}) \times 4

Simplify the equation

More Steps

12 x - 5 = 20 - 2 x

Move the expression to the left side

12 x - 5 + 2 x = 20

Move the expression to the right side

12 x + 2 x = 20 + 5

Add and subtract

More Steps

14 x = 20 + 5

Add and subtract

14 x = 25

Divide both sides

\frac{14 x}{14} = \frac{25}{14}

Solution

x = \frac{25}{14}

Alternative Form

x = 1.7 \dot{8} 5714 \dot{2}
