Solve the equation z+ 2 1/3=5 2/3 using inverse operations

1 answer

To solve the equation z + 2 1/3 = 5 2/3 using inverse operations, we need to isolate the variable z by performing the opposite operation of addition.

First, we need to subtract 2 1/3 from both sides of the equation:

z + 2 1/3 - 2 1/3 = 5 2/3 - 2 1/3
z = 3 1/3

Therefore, the solution to the equation is z = 3 1/3 or z = 10/3.
