The answer is C because Which of the following equations is equivalent to 1/2x-2/3y= c I'd just 6 times as much, so 1/2 times 6 equals 3 and 2/3 times 6 is 4

In order to solve this, you just need to lose the fraction by multiplying the equation with 6,

1/2 x - 2/3 y = 5 . . . . . . . . .x6

3 x - 4 y = 30

I'm pretty sure you miss write the option C, so i would pick that
