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

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

Solve for x

$$x=1$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 20, the least common multiple of 5,4.

$$4\left(2x+3\right)-20=5\left(x-1\right)$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 2x+3.

$$8x+12-20=5\left(x-1\right)$$

Subtract 20 from 12 to get -8.

$$8x-8=5\left(x-1\right)$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by x-1.

$$8x-8=5x-5$$

Subtract 5x from both sides.

$$8x-8-5x=-5$$

Combine 8x and -5x to get 3x.

$$3x-8=-5$$

Add 8 to both sides.

$$3x=-5+8$$

Add -5 and 8 to get 3.

$$3x=3$$

Divide both sides by 3.

$$x=\frac{3}{3}$$

Divide 3 by 3 to get 1.

$$x=1$$
