Verified Answer :

the solution is x=26

Answer:

The solution is x = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given equation is,

\(\frac{1}{3}(x-2)=\frac{1}{5}(x+4)+2\)

Add fractions on right side,

\(\frac{1}{3}(x-2)=\frac{x+4+10}{5}\)

By cross multiplication,

\(5(x-2)=3(x+14)\)

By distributive property,

\(5x-10=3x+42\)

Adding 10 on both sides,

\(5x=3x+52\)

Subtract 3x on both sides,

\(2x=52\)

Divide both sides by 2,

\(x=26\)

Which is the required solution,

Last option is correct.
