Question

Solve for x.
1/2+x/6=4/3

Answer 1

X=5

Explanation:

Subtract 1/2 from both sides.

Find a common denominator for 4/3 and 1/2.

3*2=6

2*3=6

Multiply the numerators as well.

1*3=3

4*2=8

Now we have 8/6-3/6

Our equation is now x/6=5/6

Multiply both sides by 6.

5/6*6/1

x=30/6

Simplify.

X=5
