what is 1/2x + 2/3 = 5/6?

Question

the slashes are like fractions things [:

Answer 1

1/2x+2/3 = 5/6
subtract 2/3
1/2x = 5/6-2/3 = (5-4)/6 = 1/6
multiply by 2
x = 2/6 = 1/3

Answer 2

Isolate the variable. Remember to do the same thing to both sides of the equation to keep it equal.

1/2 X + 2/3 - 2/3 = 5/6 - 2/3

Now simplify.

1/2 X = 5/6 - 4/6
1/2 X = 1/6

Again isolate.
1/2 X ^ 1/2 = 1/6 ^ 1/2
X = 1/3

Answer 3

1/2x + 2/3 = 5/6

try getting rid of the fractions by multiplying everything by 6... makes things a LOT easier

so you end up with 3x + 4 = 5
try to isolate the variable
so subtract 4 from both sides
you end up with 3x = 1
now divide both sides by 3
the result is x = 1/3 :)

hope this helped! good luck!!

Answer 4

1/2x + 2/3 = 5/6
1/2x = 5/6 - 2/3
1/2x = 5/6 - 4/6
1/2x = 1/6
x = 2/6 or 1/3
