Question

X+1/3 =9. Solve for x

Answer 1

X+1/3 =9

Subtract 1/3 from both sides

x= 9/1 - 1/3

Make both fractions have the same common denominator

x= 27/3 - 1/3

Subtract the numerators

Final Answer: 26/3 or 8 2/3

Answer 2

Isolate the x. Subtract 1/3 from both sides

x + 1/3 (-1/3) = 9 (-1/3)

x = 8 3/3 - 1/3

x = 8 2/3

8 2/3 is your answer

hope this helps
