Question

1/2x-7=1/3(x-12) pls find the value of x

Answer 1

x = 18

Explanation:

1/2x-7=1/3(x-12)

Distribute

1/2x -7 = 1/3x -4

Add 7 to each side and subtract 1/3x from each side

1/2x - 1/3x = 7-4

1/2x - 1/3x =3

Multiply each side by 6 to clear the fractions

6(1/2x - 1/3x) = 3*6

3x - 2x = 18

x = 18

Answer 2

x=18

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

(1 /2 )x−7 = (1 /3 )x−4 (Distribute)

Step 2: Subtract 1/3x from both sides.

(1 /6) x−7=−4

Step 3: Add 7 to both sides.

(1 /6 )x=3

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 6.

x=18
