What is the best way to solve this PS question? May any expert give me some help? Thanks in advanced.
$$\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{2}−\ \frac{5}{6}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{4}−\ \frac{9}{20}=\ x$$
$$60(\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{2}−\ \frac{5}{6}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{4}−\ \frac{9}{20})=\ 60x$$
$$20+30-50+12+15-27 = 60x$$
$$0 = 60x$$
$$0 = x$$
The correct answer is
A.
