Question

Rational equation find the value of x ? 5x/6+1/3=7/12

Answer 1

If you would like to find the value of x, you can do this using the following steps:

5x/6 + 1/3 = 7/12     /*6
5x + 2 = 7/2
5x = 7/2 - 2
5x = 7/2 - 4/2
5x = 3/2            /5
x = 3/2 / 5/1 = 3/2 * 1/5 = 3/10

The correct result would be: x = 3/10.
