Question

Find the errors and correct the following mathematical sentence:

(4x+3)/3 = x + 1

Answer 1

(4x+3)/3 = x + 1

\(\frac{4x\,+\,3}{3}\) =  x + 1

⇒ \(\frac{4x}{3}\,+\,\frac33\) = x + 1

⇒ \(\frac{4x}{3}\) + 1 ≠ x + 1

∴ It is a wrong sentence. 

Correct sentence is \(\frac{4x\,+\,3}{3}\) = \(\frac{4x}{3}\) + 1
