Solution for 1/5(5x+12)=18 equation:
x in (-oo:+oo)

(1/5)*(5*x+12) = 18 // - 18

(1/5)*(5*x+12)-18 = 0

1/5*(5*x+12)-18 = 0

1/5*(5*x+12)-18 = 0

x-78/5 = 0

x-78/5 = 0

x-78/5 = 0 // + 78/5

x = 78/5

Sindrei [870]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an expression for $\dfrac{\dfrac{-5}{6}}{\dfrac{-1}{3}}$ .

We can solve it as follows.

We know that,

$\dfrac{\dfrac{a}{b}}{\dfrac{c}{d}}=\dfrac{a}{b}\times \dfrac{d}{c}$

So,

$\dfrac{\dfrac{-5}{6}}{\dfrac{-1}{3}}=\dfrac{-5}{6}\times -3\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}$

$=2\dfrac{1}{2}$

Hence, this is the required solution.
