Answer:


\boxed {s = 14}

Explanation:

Solve for the value of
s:


(2)/(3)s + (5)/(6)s = 21

-Combine like terms:


(2)/(3)s + (5)/(6)s = 21


(3)/(2)s = 21

-Multiply
(2)/(3) on both sides, which is the reciprocal of
(3)/(2), and multiply
21 and
2:


s = 21 * ((2)/(3))


s = (21 * 2)/(3)


s = (42)/(3)

-Divide
42 by
3:


s = (42)/(3)


\boxed {s = 14}

Therefore, the value of
s is
14.
