Answer:

x=3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must combine like terms and find the common denominator (which is 5):

12/5x-2x

12/5x-10/5x=2/5x

Then, we cross multiply

[tex]\frac{2x}{5} =\frac{3}{10}[/tex]= 2x(10)=(3)(5)=20x=15

Then, we divide by 20 to get x:

x=15/20

and finally, we simplify the fraction

x=3/4
