? –56 –52 52 56

Answer 1

The value of x is 56.

Explanation:

Here, the given equation,

`(1)/(3)x-(2)/(3)=18`

`(x-2)/(3)=18` ( Subtraction of fractions ),

`x-2=54` ( Cross multiplication )

`x=56` ( adding 2 on both sides )

Hence, the value of x in the given equation is 56.

Last option is correct.
