Question

What is the solution to the equation 3x-0.5=1

Answer 1

x = .5

Explanation:

3x - .5 = 1

1 + .5 = 1.5

3x = 1.5

1.5/3 = .5

x = .5

Answer 2

x = 0.5

Explanation:

Step 1: Add 0.5 to both sides

3x - 0.5 + 0.5 = 1 + 0.5

3x = 1.5

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3

3x / 3 = 1.5 / 3

x = 0.5

Answer: x = 0.5
