x/6-5/2= -1/3
=>x-15= -2 [multiplying both sides by 6]
=> x=-2+15=13

x/6 - 5/2 = - 1/3
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6
6(x/6) - 6(5/2) = - 6(1/3)
x - 15 = - 2
Transpose 15
x - 15 + 15 = - 2 + 15
x = 13

If what you meant was:
(x/6) - (5/2) = (-1/3)
Then, (x/6) - (5/2) + (1/3) = 0
(x - 15 + 2) / (6) = 0
(x - 13) = 0
x = 13
Hope it helps!!

x/6 - 5/2 = -1/3
x/6 = -1/3 + 5/2
x/6 = 13/6
x= 13
Good Luck!

multiply each side by 6
x 6/6-6*5/2=-6/3
x-15=-2
Add 15 to each side
x -15+15 = -2+15
x=13

X by 12:-
2x - 30 = - 4
2x = 26
x = 13
