Question 662483: x+2/6-5=x/2
Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x + 1/3 - 5 = x/2
x + 1/3 - 15/3 = x/2
x - 14/3 = x/2
2x - 2(14/3) = x
2x - x = 2(14/3)
x = 28/3 = 9 1/3
Proof
right side
28/3 + 2/6 - 5
28/3(2/2) + 2/6 - 5(6/6)
56/6 + 2/6 - 30/6
28/6
Left side
(28/3) /2
same as
28/3 * 1/2
28/6
