Question -

x/5 < (3x-2)/4 – (5x-3)/5



Answer -

Given: x/5 < (3x-2)/4 – (5x-3)/5
x/5 < [5(3x-2) – 4(5x-3)]/4(5)
x/5 < [15x – 10 – 20x + 12]/20
x/5 < [2 – 5x]/20
Multiply both the sides by 20 we get,
x/5 × 20 < [2 – 5x]/20 × 20
4x < 2 – 5x
4x + 5x < 2 – 5x + 5x
9x < 2
Divide both sides by 9, we get
9x/9 < 2/9
x < 2/9
∴ The solution of the given inequation is (-∞, 2/9).
