Solve 3x+7/2=5

$$3x+ \frac{ 7 }{ 2 } =5$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{1}{2}=0.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract \frac{7}{2} from both sides.

$$3x=5-\frac{7}{2}$$

Convert 5 to fraction \frac{10}{2}.

$$3x=\frac{10}{2}-\frac{7}{2}$$

Since \frac{10}{2} and \frac{7}{2} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$3x=\frac{10-7}{2}$$

Subtract 7 from 10 to get 3.

$$3x=\frac{3}{2}$$

Divide both sides by 3.

$$x=\frac{\frac{3}{2}}{3}$$

Express \frac{\frac{3}{2}}{3} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{3}{2\times 3}$$

Cancel out 3 in both numerator and denominator.

$$x=\frac{1}{2}$$
