3 answers
x - 4/3 = 11/3
What is the number?
To find the number, we need to solve for x in the equation:
x - 4/3 = 11/3
To isolate x, we can add 4/3 to both sides of the equation:
x - 4/3 + 4/3 = 11/3 + 4/3
x = 15/3
x = 5
Therefore, the number is 5.
x - 4/3 = 11/3
To isolate x, we can add 4/3 to both sides of the equation:
x - 4/3 + 4/3 = 11/3 + 4/3
x = 15/3
x = 5
Therefore, the number is 5.
