Question

Two thirds a number x plus 9 is 11

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets write this equation out

$\frac{2}{3} x+9=11$

Now we can begin solving for x.

First we need to subtract 9 from each side

$\frac{2}{3} x+9=11\\\\\frac{2}{3} x=2$

Now, we must divide by $\frac{2}{3}$. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal, so instead I will multiply by $\frac{3}{2}$

$\frac{2}{3} x=2\\\\x=2(\frac{3}{2} )\\\\x=\frac{6}{2} \\\\x=3$

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer to the question is x=1/2.
