Solve the following:$3x \div 4 -7 \div 4 = 5x+12$.
Given :
The given expression is $3x ÷4-7 ÷4=5x+12$.
To do :
We have to find the value of x.
Solution :
$3x \div 4 -7 \div 4 = 5x+12$
In these types of problems, the BODMAS method should be used.
$\frac{3x}{4}-\frac{7}{4}=5x+12$
$\frac{3x-7}{4}=5x+12$
$3x-7=4(5x+12)$
$3x-7=20x+48$
$3x-20x = 48+7$
$-17x=55$
$x=\frac{55}{-17}=-\frac{55}{17}$.
Therefore, the value of x is $-\frac{55}{17}$.
3x\ \div 4-7\ \div 4=5x+12\ \frac{3x}{4} -\frac{7}{4} =5x+12\ \frac{3x-7}{4} =5x+12\ 3x-7=4( 5x+12)\ 3x-7=20x+48\ 20x-3x=-7-48\ 17x=-55\ x=\frac{-55}{17} \end{array}
