Jerry solved this equation: 3 ( x − 1 4 ) = 13 6
1. 3x − 3 4 = 13 6
2. 3x − 3 4 + 3 4 = 13 6 + 3 4
3. 3x = 26 12 + 9 12
4. 3x = 35 12
5. ( 3 1 ) 3 1 x = 35 12 ( 3 1 )
6. x = 105 12
in which step did jerry make an error?
a) in step 2, he should have subtracted 3/4 from both sides.
b) in step 3, he should have found an lcd of 10.
c) in step 4, he should have subtracted 9 from 26.
d) in step 5, he should have multiplied both sides by 1.3

D) In step 5, he should have multiplied both sides by 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression,

Using distributive property,

Using additive property of equality,

Make the fraction with same denominator by taking LCM of Denominators in left side the equation,

Adding fractions,

Write 3 as a fraction,

Using multiplicative property of equality for isolating the variable in right side, multiply 1/3 in both sides,

Hence, it is clear that he did mistake in step 5 he should have multiplied both sides by 1/3.

D. In step 5, he should have multiplied both sides by 1/3
