Answer 2

Answer:

8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 + 1 / ( 2 2/5) - 1/x = 1/3 -  1 / ( 2 2/3)

Changing to improper fractions

2 2/5 = ((5*2+2) / 5 = 12/5

2 2/3 = ( 3*2+2) /3 = 8/3

2/3 + 1 / ( 12/5) - 1/x = 1/3 -  1 / ( 8/3)

1 over and improper fraction flips the improper fraction  1 / ( a/b) = b/a

2/3 + 5/12 - 1/x = 1/3 -3/8

Subtract 2/3 from each side

5/12 -1/x = 1/3 -2/3 -3/8

5/12 -1/x =  -1/3 -3/8

Subtract 5/12 from each side

-1/x =  -1/3 -3/8-5/12

Multiply each side by 24 to get rid of the fractions

-24/x = -24/3 -3*24/8 -5*24/12

-24/x = -8 -9 -10

-24/x = -27

Multiply each side by x

-24 = -27x

Divide by -27

-24/-27 =x

8/9 =x
