Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\dfrac{x}{3}+\dfrac{y}{4}=2\\\\\\\text{Multiply the whole equation by the LCM of 4 , 12 which is 12}\\\\ 12*\dfrac{x}{3}+12*\dfrac{y}{4}=12*2\\\\\\4x + 3y=24 \ -------------------(i)[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{2x}{3}+\dfrac{3y}{4}=5\\\\\\\text{Multiply the whole equation by 12}\\\\12*\dfrac{2x}{3}+12*\dfrac{3y}{4}=5*12\\\\\\[/tex]

8x + 9y = 60 -------------------------(ii)

Multiply  equation (i) by (-2)

(i)*(-2)              -8x -6y = -48

(ii)                     8x +9y = 60   {Now add. x will be cancelled}

                                3y = 12    {Divide both sides by 3}

                                  y = 12/3

y = 4

Substitute y = 4 in equation (i)

4x + 3*4 = 24

4x + 12   = 24

         4x = 24 - 12

         4x = 12

           x = 12/4

x = 3

[tex]\boxed{x = 3 \ ; \ y = 4}[/tex]
