Question

What is the solution to the equation below? ½ x+¾=⅔

Answer 1

`\boxed{x = - (1)/(6)}`

Explanation:

`= > (1)/(2) x + (3)/(4) = (2)/(3) \\ \\ = > (1)/(2) x = (2)/(3) - (3)/(4) \\ \\ = > (1)/(2) x = ( (2)/(3) * (4)/(4) ) - ((3)/(4) * (3)/(3) ) \\ \\ = > (1)/(2) x = (8)/(12) - (9)/(12) \\ \\ = > (1)/(2) x = (8 - 9)/(12) \\ \\ = > (1)/(2) x = - (1)/(12) \\ \\ = > x = 2 * ( - (1)/(12) ) \\ \\ = > x = - (1)/(6)`
