Question

2/3x+1/6=1 what is x

Answer 1

`\boxed {x = (5)/(4)}`

Explanation:

Solve for the value of
`x`:

`(2)/(3)x + (1)/(6) = 1`

-Subtract
`(1)/(6)` to both sides and convert the
`1` into a fraction. Since they both fractions
`(6)/(6)` and
`(1)/(6)` both have the same denominators, then you would subtract the numerators:

`(2)/(3)x + (1)/(6) - (1)/(6) = 1 - (1)/(6)`

`(2)/(3)x = (6)/(6) - (1)/(6)`

`(2)/(3)x = (5)/(6)`

-Multiply both sides by
`(3)/(2)` which is the reciprocal of
`(2)/(3)`. By multiplying two you need to multiply both numerators and denominators:

`x = (5)/(6) * ((2)/(3))`

`x = (5 * 3)/(6 * 2)`

`x = (15)/(12)`

-Simplify the fraction by reducing by
`3`:

`x = (15)/(12)`

`\boxed {x = (5)/(4)}`

Therefore, the value of
`x` is
`(5)/(4)`.
