Question

Solve for x 1.x=1 and 2over 3​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 1 and 2/3 or x = 1 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of equation

1 * x = 1 2/3

1 * x is 1x which is the same as x because there is one x

then for the improper fraction which is 1 2/3

to simplify improper fractions we times the whole number by the denominator

so 1 * 3 then add the numerator 2 and the denominator stays the same so we get x = 5/3

now we have x = 5/3 this is not correct because the numerator is bigger than the denominator so we just subtract the denominator from the numerator and how many times 3 goes into 5 (in this case 1) becomes the new whole number.

therefore we get x = 1 2/3
