You can put this solution on YOUR website! X/2+8X/9=X/18
X/2+8X/9-X/18=0 NOW FIND A COMMON DENOMINATOR (THAT 18,9 & 2 WILL DIVIDE EVENLY INTO) SO YOU CAN COMBINE THESE TERMS. 18 LOOKS LIKE A GOOD CHOICE AS 18/18=1
18/9=2 & 18/2=9.
-----------------------------------
x/2=9x/18
8x/9=16x/18
x/18=x/18
Now you can add them.
9x/18+16x/18-x/18=0
(9x+16x-x)/18=0
24x/18=0 Now reduce.
4x/3=0 Cross multiply.
4x=0
x=0 answer.
