Solve 1/3x+2/4=4/8

$$\frac { 1 } { 3 } x + \frac { 2 } { 4 } = \frac { 4 } { 8 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=0$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{4} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{4}{8}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{8} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}$$

Subtract \frac{1}{2} from both sides.

$$\frac{1}{3}x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}$$

Subtract \frac{1}{2} from \frac{1}{2} to get 0.

$$\frac{1}{3}x=0$$

Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since \frac{1}{3} is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.

$$x=0$$
