Question

X-2/3= 6 1/3 what is the answer??????????

Answer 1

For this case we must find the solution of the following equation:

`x- \frac {2} {3} = 6 \frac {1} {3}`

Rewriting the mixed number in the form of improper fraction we have:

`x- \frac {2} {3} = \frac {3 * 6 + 1} {3}\\x- \frac {2} {3} = \frac {19} {3}`

Add
`\frac {2} {3}` to both sides of the equation:

`x = \frac {19} {3} + \frac {2} {3}`

We add the fractions with the same denominator:

`x = \frac {19 + 2} {3}\\x = \frac {21} {3}\\x = 7`

So, the solution is
`x = 7`

Answer:

`x = 7`
