(x+2)/(2x+1)= 3/5

\frac{x + 2}{2 x + 1} = \frac{3}{5}

x = 7

Solution steps

\frac{x + 2}{2 x + 1} = \frac{3}{5}

Cross multiply

5 x + 10 = 6 x + 3

Move

10

to the right side

5 x = 6 x - 7

Move

6 x

to the left side

- x = - 7

Divide both sides by

- 1

x = 7

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - \frac{1}{2}

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 7

\frac{853 + x}{x} = 3.61

\frac{2 x}{x + 2} = 7 - \frac{4}{x + 2}

\frac{5}{2 x + 1} + \frac{6}{x + 1} = 3

2 = \frac{3}{7} - \frac{6}{x}

\frac{x}{x - 1} + 8 = \frac{1}{x - 1}
