Detailed Solution


Given equation x 2 1 5 = x 3 + 1 4  .
Transposing x 3   to the left-hand side and 1 5   to the right-hand side.
x 2 x 3 = 1 4 + 1 5  
Taking the LCM of (2, 3) and (4, 5).
3x2x 6 = 5+4 20 x 6 = 9 20 x= 54 20 x= 27 10  
Hence, the value of variable x is 27 10  .
Correct option is 1.
