To solve this equation for x, we will first simplify the left side of the equation:
8/9 (x + 1/2) = 32/3
We will multiply both sides by 9/8 to get rid of the fraction on the left side:
(9/8)(8/9)(x + 1/2) = (9/8)(32/3)
x + 1/2 = 36/3
x + 1/2 = 12
Next, we will subtract 1/2 from both sides of the equation to isolate x:
(x + 1/2) - 1/2 = 12 - 1/2
x = 12 - 1/2
x = 11 1/2
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 11 1/2.
