Question

2x/9 +x/3 = 13/6, solve for x

Answer 1

Answer:

$\bold{\red{\boxed{\blue{ x = 3.9}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x}{9} + \frac{x}{3} = \frac{13}{6} \\ \frac{2x + 3x}{9} = \frac{13}{6} \\ \frac{5x}{9} = \frac{13}{6} \\ use \: \: cross \: \: multipication \\ 5x \times 6 = 9 \times 13 \\ 30x =11 7 \\ \frac{30x}{30} = \frac{117}{30} \\ x = 3.9$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 3 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x/9 +x/3 = 13/6

Get a common denominator on the left side

2x/9 + x/3 *3/3 = 13/6

2x/9 + 3x/9 = 13/6

5x/9 = 13/6

Multiply each side by 9/5 to isolate x

5x/9 *9/5 = 13/6 * 9/5

x = 117/30

Divide the top and bottom by 3

x = 39/10

x = 3 9/10
