Question

X-5/3=1 in the simplest form

Answer 1

`\sf \longmapsto \: x- (5)/(3) =1`

• Simplify both sides of the equation

`\sf \longmapsto \: x + ( - 5)/( 3) = 1`

• Add 5/3 to both sides

`\sf \longmapsto x + ( - 5)/(3) + (5)/(3) = 1 + (5)/(3)`

`\sf \longmapsto \: x = (8)/(3)`

`\boxed{\sf { \red{ x = (8)/(3)}} }`

Answer 2

`\\ \sf\longmapsto x-5/3=1`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto x=1+5/3`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto x=3+5/3`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto x=8/3`
