Go to the site calculator

press $$2\:x^y\:6=$$

and you wil have your answer.

OR

$$2^6 = 2\times2 \times 2 \times 2\times 2\times 2 \\
2,4,8,16,32,64
=64$$

answer is 64 

I just realised that you have put this question up twice and you now have two very different (both probably correct although I haven't checked) answers.

One below by problem - thank you problem and welcome to the forum. (I already left a private welcome message for you, you may need to press on your username to get into the message centre)

and one from admin instructing you how to use the calculator.

Both good answers.

Please don't post questions twice,  it just fills up the forum with 'spam'.

What a fabulous post.   (But, what does PRB stand for?)

Why didn't you identify yourself?

That was hilarious.

For the young people: Francis was a talking mule.  The movies were very funny.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

$${\frac{{\mathtt{4}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{x}}}{{\mathtt{5}}}}{\mathtt{\,-\,}}{\frac{{\mathtt{3}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{x}}}{{\mathtt{4}}}} = {\frac{{\mathtt{3}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{x}}}{{\mathtt{10}}}}{\mathtt{\,-\,}}{\mathtt{1}} = {\mathtt{x}} = {\mathtt{4}}$$

That is the answer straight from the site calculator. I putit in using Math(Input=result) tab.

Now I'll do it by hand - When you do it you should line up all the equal signs.

I multiplied by 20 because 20 is  the LCD Lowest common denominator and that got rid of all the fractions.

$$\frac{4x}{5}-\frac{3x}{4}=\frac{3x}{10}-1\\\\
20\times \left(\frac{4x}{5}-\frac{3x}{4}\right)=20\times
\left(\frac{3x}{10}-1\right)\\\\
16x-15x=6x-20\\\\
x=6x-20\\\\
-5x=-20\\\\
x=4$$

Hi all,

Great answers today from DavidQD, Admin, CPhill, Rom, Gib, Bertie and of course some anonymous people. Thank you all.  

We noe have an outbox so we can see the messages that we have sent.  That's a nice step forward.  Other asspects of the members section still need a lot of work.  Not to worry, it is comming together slowly.  Our top answer board has changed again.  The numbers have had another boost. lol  Andre has told me that it has 'bug' so I don't know what it will look like tomorrow.

I did send a quick message to Andre.  I told him of Alans's observations concerning the member profiles appearing in the answer section.  I also asked him if he could run some kind of language scanner through posts so that some of the vulgar ones could be deleted automatically.  He hasn't replied yet.

We had an anonymous post signed "Lucifer van Pelt" this morning.  It was a lot of fun.  Take a look for yourself. 

2-4=-2   and that is it.

It wouldn't usually make much sense!
