    x = 3 / 4

    y = 1 / 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    6x + 5y = 7 (first equation)

    2x + 3y = 3 (second equation)

    Finding the value of x from the first equation

    6x = 7 - 5y

    x = 7 - 5y / 6 (third equation)

    By applying the third equation in second equation

    2 (7 - 5y / 6) + 3y = 3

    14 - 10y / 6 + 3y = 3

    14 - 10y / 6 + 18y / 6 = 3 (Taking LCM)

    14 + 8y / 6 = 3

    14 + 8y = 3 * 6 (when division passes from one side of the = sign, it becomes * )

    14 + 8y = 18

    8y = 4

    y = 1 / 2 (fourth equation)

    By applying fourth equation in second equation

    6x + 5 / 2 = 7

    12x + 5 / 2 = 7 (taking LCM)

    12x + 5 = 14

    12x = 9

    x = 9 / 12

    x = 3 / 4

    therefore the value of x = 3 / 4 and value of y = 1 / 2
