x/3 + x/2 =5/6 solve for x
Convert to denominators of 6:2x/6 + 3x/6 = 5/6Add the numerators:5x/6 = 5/6Cross multiply:30x = 30Divide 30 to both sides:x = 1
so try to get rid of the fractions by finding a common factor common factor of 3 and 2 and 6 is 6 so x/3 times 2/2=2x/6x/2 times 3/3=3x/6so 2x/6+3x/6=5/6add5x/6=5/6multily boths ides by 65x=5divide by 5x=1
