Answer:


(79)/(5)

Explanation:

Combine
(1)/(3) and x.


(x)/(3) +(11)/(15)=6

Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.


(x)/(3)=(79)/(15)

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.

3
(x)/(3)=3(
(79)/(15))

Then 3 cancels out on the left side so all is left is 3.

On the right side, you need to multiply.

3 times 79 is 237.

Now simplify and you get:

79/5

Hope this helped!
