Solve x-9/15=2x-9/10

Evaluate

x - \frac{9}{15} = 2 x - \frac{9}{10}

Cancel out the common factor 3

x - \frac{3}{5} = 2 x - \frac{9}{10}

Multiply both sides of the equation by LCM

(x - \frac{3}{5}) \times 10 = (2 x - \frac{9}{10}) \times 10

Calculate

More Steps

10 x - 6 = (2 x - \frac{9}{10}) \times 10

Calculate

More Steps

10 x - 6 = 20 x - 9

Move the expression to the left side

10 x - 6 - 20 x = - 9

Move the expression to the right side

10 x - 20 x = - 9 + 6

Add and subtract

More Steps

- 10 x = - 9 + 6

Add and subtract

- 10 x = - 3

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

10 x = 3

Divide both sides

\frac{10 x}{10} = \frac{3}{10}

Solution

x = \frac{3}{10}

Alternative Form

x = 0.3
