Hey!


To solve this problem, we must subtract one over three from both sides of the equation. This will give us x on its own.

Original Equation :

x + (1)/(3) = (1)/(4)

New Equation {Added Subtract
(1)/(3) to Both Sides} :


x + (1)/(3) - (1)/(3) = (1)/(4) - (1)/(3)

Solution {New Equation Solved} :

x=- (1)/(12)

So, this means that in the equation provided,
x=- (1)/(12).


Hope this helps!
