<PRE><B>Question 167915</B>
{{{(2/3)x+(1/6)x=2}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{6((2/cross(3))x)+cross(6)((1/cross(6))x)=6(2)}}} Multiply EVERY term by the LCD {{{6}}} to clear any fractions.



{{{4x+x=12}}} Multiply and simplify.



{{{5x=12}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{x=(12)/(5)}}} Divide both sides by {{{5}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.

Answer:


So the answer is {{{x=12/5}}} which in decimal form is {{{x=2.4}}}.
