Question

Solve for x x- 5/3=1​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 8/3 or 2 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 5/3 = 1

x - 5/3 + 5/3 = x

1 + 5/3 = 8/3 or 2 2/3

x = 8/3 or 2 2/3

Answer 2

Answer:

x = $\frac{8}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x - $\frac{5}{3}$ = 1 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

3x - 5 = 3 ( add 5 to both sides )

3x = 8 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = $\frac{8}{3}$
