x = 6

given \frac{3}{x} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5}{6}

to eliminate the fractions multiply through by the lowest common multiple of x, 3 and 6 , that is 6x

multiply all terms by 6x gives

18 + 2x = 5x ( subtract 2x from both sides )

18 = 3x ( divide both sides by 3 )

6 = x

As a check

\frac{3}{6} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{6} + \frac{2}{6} = \frac{5}{6}
