Answer 1

Answer:

20x-48=9

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to start by finding the LCD and then multiplying the equation by it. 8=2x2x2 and 6=2x3 the LCD must be 2x2x2x3=24

Multiply the equation by 24 $\frac{24}{1} *\frac{5}{6} x -\frac{24}{1} *\frac{2}{1} =\frac{24}{1} *\frac{3}{8}$

Simplify. 20x-48=9
