One solution was found : x = 5/7 = 0.714

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

-1/2*x+1/3-(1/5*x-1/6)=0

Step by step solution :Step 1 : 1 Simplify — 6 Equation at the end of step 1 : 1 1 1 1 ((0-(—•x))+—)-((—•x)-—) = 0 2 3 5 6 Step 2 : 1 Simplify — 5 Equation at the end of step 2 : 1 1 1 1 ((0-(—•x))+—)-((—•x)-—) = 0 2 3 5 6 Step 3 :Calculating the Least Common Multiple : 3.1 Find the Least Common Multiple

The left denominator is : 5

The right denominator is : 6
