Deon's gas tank is (1)/(3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fudgin [204]4 years ago
4 0

let's say it holds "x" gallons of gas.

how much is 1/3 of that?  well is just (1/3)x.

how about 1/2 of that?  well is just (1/2)x.

we know that

\bf \stackrel{\textit{originally}}{\cfrac{1}{3}x}+\stackrel{\textit{gas bought}}{2}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{sum of both}}{\cfrac{1}{2}x} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{6}}{6\left( \cfrac{1}{3}x+2 \right)=6\left( \cfrac{1}{2}x \right)}\implies 2x+12=3x\implies 12=x

notice, we simply multiplied both sides by the LCD of all fractions, to just do away with the denominators.
