How to solve 7 * 5 - 2/3 = 42

1. Factor the equation (x + 2)(x + 3) = 0. 2. Set each factor equal to zero: x + 2 = 0 and x + 3 = 0. 3. Solve for x: x = -2 and x = -3.

Question

$$7\times5-2\div3=42$$

Verify

$\text{false}$

Solution Steps

Multiply $7$ and $5$ to get $35$.

$$35-\frac{2}{3}=42$$

Convert $35$ to fraction $\frac{105}{3}$.

$$\frac{105}{3}-\frac{2}{3}=42$$

Since $\frac{105}{3}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{105-2}{3}=42$$

Subtract $2$ from $105$ to get $103$.

$$\frac{103}{3}=42$$

Convert $42$ to fraction $\frac{126}{3}$.

$$\frac{103}{3}=\frac{126}{3}$$

Compare $\frac{103}{3}$ and $\frac{126}{3}$.

$$\text{false}$$
