1/2 + x = 2/3

1 answer

To solve for x, we first need to isolate x on one side of the equation.

First, let's get rid of the fraction on the left side by multiplying all terms by 6:

6*(1/2) + 6*x = 6*(2/3)
3 + 6x = 4

Now, let's isolate x by subtracting 3 from both sides:

6x = 1

Finally, divide by 6 to solve for x:

x = 1/6

So the solution is x = 1/6.
