Answer: x = 0


Step-by-step explanation:

The first step would be to convert everything to one form. I'll do the fractions, since 1/3 is hard to represent in decimal.

3 1/4 + 1/2x + 1 1/3 + 5/6x = 5 11/12

Now, the fractions will be converted via GCF. 12 is easily divisible by 4, 2, 3 and 6, so that I'll be the denominator used.

3 1/4 -> 3 3/12

1/2x -> 6/12x

1 1/3 -> 1 4/12

5/6x -> 10/12x

5 11/12 will stay the same.

The new equation is:

3 3/12 + 6/12x + 1 4/12 + 10/12x = 5 11/12

Combine like terms:

4 7/12 + 1 4/12x = 5 11/12

Subtract 4 7/12 from both sides

1 4/12x = 1 4/12

Divide both sides by 1 4/12x

x= 0
