Solve the following equations by factorization method:

2x2 – 5x + 3 = 0


On factorizing the above equation,

2x2 – 5x + 3 = 0


2x2 – 2x -3x + 3 = 0


2x(x - 1) – 3(x - 1) = 0


(2x - 3) (x - 1) = 0


Solving the first part,


2x - 3 = 0


2x = 3


x = 3/2


Solving the second part,


x – 1 = 0


x = 1
