Solve for x in each of the following:

Question

a: 2/3x = 11/6
b: 3/4 / x = 1/3
c: 5/6 - 2/3x = 3/4
d: 2x/3 + 1/4 = x/6 - 1/2

Please help me and explain, I don't get fractions at all!

Answer 1

11/6= 6*1 +1=7/6
2x/3=7/6
2x*6=7*3
x=21/12=7/4

x=3/4*3=9/4

5/6-3/4=2/3x for 5/6-3/4---> 6*4=24 then
(5*4)/24-(3*6)/24=2/3x
(20-18)/24=2/3x
2/24=2/3x
x=1/8
