Solve each of the following equation and also check your result in each case:
$\frac{(3 x+1)}{16}+\frac{(2 x-3)}{7}=\frac{(x+3)}{8}+\frac{(3 x-1)}{14}$
$\frac{3 \mathrm{x}+1}{16}+\frac{2 \mathrm{x}-3}{7}=\frac{\mathrm{x}+3}{8}+\frac{3 \mathrm{x}-1}{14}$
or $\frac{3 \mathrm{x}+1}{16}-\frac{\mathrm{x}+3}{8}=\frac{3 \mathrm{x}-1}{14}-\frac{2 \mathrm{x}-3}{7}$
or $\frac{3 \mathrm{x}+1-2 \mathrm{x}-6}{16}=\frac{3 \mathrm{x}-1-4 \mathrm{x}+6}{14}$
or $\frac{\mathrm{x}-5}{8}=\frac{-\mathrm{x}+5}{7}$
or $7 \mathrm{x}-35=-8 \mathrm{x}+40$
or $15 \mathrm{x}=75$
or $\mathrm{x}=\frac{75}{15}=5$
Check :
L.H.S. $=\frac{3 \times 5+1}{16}+\frac{2 \times 5-3}{7}=\frac{16}{16}+\frac{7}{7}=2$
R.H. S. $=\frac{5+3}{8}+\frac{3 \times 5-1}{14}=\frac{8}{8}+\frac{14}{14}=2$
$\therefore$ L.H.S. = R.H.S. for $x=5$
