Thats wrong
Apologies for the mistake. The reciprocal of the fraction 2/3 is 3/2.
THAT IS WRONG ITS NOT 2/3 OR 3/2
I apologize for the confusion. The reciprocal of the fraction 2/3 is 3/2. However, to solve the equation 2/3(x − 4) = -10, you need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of the coefficient of x, which is 3/2.
