Question

Please help solve this

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

so what you want to do first to create a common denominator:

1. multiply 2/3 by 2 to get a denominator of 6

2. Now you have 4/6, to solve for x you subtract 4/6 from the total

$\frac{5}{6} - \frac{4}{6} = \frac{1}{6}$

thats how you get your answer!

Hope this helped :)

Answer 2

Answer:

x=1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

So, let's subtract $\frac{2}{3}$ from both sides, which would mean

$x=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{2}{3}$

now, let's make denominators (lower part of the ratios) the same.

$x=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{4}{6}=\frac{1}{6}$
