Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

you add 3/5 to the other side and find the lcm making it 6/10--1/10=5/10. Then 5/10 divided by 2 = 2.5/10 which you can simplify to 1/4.

Answer: x=1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Isolate x: if you move -3/5 to the other side, your equation would become

=> 2x=-1/10+3/5

2. Find the common denominator: since you can't add -1/10 with 3/5 without simplifying, you're equation would change to this:

=> 2x=-1/10+6/10

3. Simplify:

=> 2x=5/10  =>  2x=1/2

4. Divide:

=> 2x=1/2  =>  x=1/2*1/2  =>  x=1/4

Have a nice day! :D
