If `5 ((x)/(6) + (1)/(2)) = 5x - 10`, then x = ____

A

3

B

`1//3`

C

6

D

`1//6`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Given, `5((x)/(6) + (1)/(2)) = 5x - 10`
`(5x)/(6) + (5)/(2) = 5x - 10`
`(5x + 15)/(6) = 5x - 10`
`5x + 15 = 30x - 60`
`75 = 25x`
`x = 3`
Hence, the correct option is (a)
