You asked:

Solve the equation \(\frac{7 x}{12} - \frac{1}{20} = \frac{x - 2}{24}\) for the variable \(x\).

MathBot Answer:

The solution is: \[x = - \frac{4}{65} = -0.0\overline{615384}\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{7 x}{12} - \frac{1}{20} &= \frac{x}{24} - \frac{1}{12}\\\frac{13 x}{24} &= - \frac{1}{30}\\x &= - \frac{4}{65}\end{aligned}\]
