Question 69550
x divided by 9 + x-3 divided by 6 = 27
{{{x/9+(x-3)/6=27}}}  The LCD is 18, so you can clear your fractions by multiplying everything by 18.
{{{18x/9+18(x-3)/6=18(27)}}}
{{{2x+3(x-3)=18(27)}}}
{{{2x+3x-9=486}}}
{{{5x-9=486}}}
{{{5x-9+9=486+9}}}
{{{5x=495}}}
{{{5x/5=495/5}}}
{{{highlight(x=99)}}}
Check by letting x=99 and see if both sides of the equation are the same once you simplify.
{{{99/9+(99-3)/6=27}}}
{{{11+96/6=27}}}
{{{11+16=27}}}
{{{27=27}}}  We're right!!!
Happy Calculating!!!
