Simplify \(\frac{2x-1}{3}-\frac{x+3}{2}\)
- A. \(\frac{x+3}{6}\)
- B. \(\frac{x+8}{6}\)
- C. \(\frac{x-11}{6}\)
- D. \(\frac{x-4}{6}\)
Correct Answer: C. \(\frac{x-11}{6}\)
Explanation
\(\frac{2x - 1}{3} - \frac{x + 3}{2}\)
= \(\frac{2(2x - 1) - 3(x + 3)}{6}\)
= \(\frac{4x - 2 - 3x - 9}{6}\)
= \(\frac{x - 11}{6}\)
