Given:

[tex]\dfrac{2x-3}{x-4}=\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]\dfrac{2x-3}{x-4}=\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

By cross multiplication, we get

[tex]3(2x-3)=2(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]6x-9=2x-8[/tex]

Isolating variable terms, we get

[tex]6x-2x=9-8[/tex]

[tex]4x=1[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4.

[tex]x=\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=0.25[/tex]

Therefore, the solution of the given equation is x = 0.25.
