Given:
\n" ); document.write( "(1) $\"1%2F2+-%28x-2%29%2F3+=+1%2F6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The LCD is 6, so multiply BOTH side of (1) by 6 to get
\n" ); document.write( "(2) $\"6%2A%281%2F2%29+-+6%2A%28x-2%29%2F3+=+6%2A%281%2F6%29\"$ or
\n" ); document.write( "(3) $\"3+-+2%2A%28x-2%29+=+1\"$ or
\n" ); document.write( "(4) $\"3+-+2x+%2B4+=+1\"$ or
\n" ); document.write( "(5) $\"-2x+=+1+-+7\"$ or
\n" ); document.write( "(6) $\"-2x+=+-6\"$ or
\n" ); document.write( "(7) $\"x+=+3\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Check this with (1).
\n" ); document.write( "Is (1/2 -(3-2)/3 = 1/6)?
\n" ); document.write( "Is (1/2 - 1/3 = 1/6)?
\n" ); document.write( "Is ((3-2)/2*3 = 16)?
\n" ); document.write( "Is (1/6 = 1/6)? Yes
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: x = 3 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
