Solve this please 1/3x+1/4=x-1/6?
(1/3)x + (1/4) = x - (1/6) (1/3)x + (1/4) = (1/1) x - (1/6) lowest commom multiple of 3 ; 4 ; 1 and 6 = 12 ⇔ 12 [ (1/3)x + (1/4) ] = 12 [ x - (1/6) ] (12/3)x + (12/4) = 12x - (12/6) 4x + 3 = 12x - 2 3 + 2 = 12x - 4x 5 = 8x 8x = 5 8x/8 = 5/8 x = 5/8 ⇦ answer *******
3 1/3x - 5/6 = -2/3 ???
Multiply both sides by 6 (18+2)x - 5 = -4 20x=1 x=1/20
