Hi there,
can someone help me solve for this equation. I forgot the way it goes. Can you show me your steps as well, it would help me to learn.


3(1/(X-10) - 1/X)= 1/(X-25) - 1/X

Thanks
davo

It can be written as:
30/(x-10)x=25/(x-25)x

30/(x-10)=25/(x-25)--taking LCM for denominator

30(x-25)=25(x-10)----Crisscrossing

30x-750=25x-250

5x=500

x=100 is the answer. I hope it is correct
