Verifying Solutions in Instrument Calibration

A reliability engineer is solving the rational equation 53u2=32u\frac{5}{3u-2} = \frac{3}{2u} to calibrate a precision instrument. Following the standard five-step strategy for solving rational equations, what is the final numerical solution for uu, and what specific numerical value is obtained on both sides of the equation during the final 'Check' step to confirm the solution is valid?
