11 - 1 / 2x = 1

Firstly, evaluate the numerator

11 - 1/2x = 1

Find the LCM

The LCM is 2x

11 / 1 - 1/2x /2x

22x - 1 /2x = 1

lntroduce cross multiplication

22x - 1 = 1 * 2x

22x - 1 = 2x

Collect the like terms

-1 = 2x - 22x

-1 = -20x

Divide both sides by -20

-1/-20 = -20x/-20

1/20 = x

x = 0.05

The answer is 0.05
