Answer:


(7x)/(6) + 1

Explanation:

Simplify each term.

x/2+2x/3+1

To write x2 as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by 3/3.

x/2⋅3/3+2x/3+1

To write 2x/3 as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by 2/2.

x//2⋅33+2x/3⋅2/2+1

Write each expression with a common denominator of 6, by multiplying each by an appropriate factor of 1.

x⋅3/6+2x⋅2/6+1

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

x⋅3+2x⋅2/6+1

Simplify each term.

7x/6+1
