Solve 1/4x-2/3+1/12x=1

$$\frac { 1 } { 4 } x - \frac { 2 } { 3 } + \frac { 1 } { 12 } x = 1$$

Solve for x

$$x=5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine \frac{1}{4}x and \frac{1}{12}x to get \frac{1}{3}x.

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

Add \frac{2}{3} to both sides.

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

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.

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

Since \frac{3}{3} and \frac{2}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

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

Add 3 and 2 to get 5.

$$\frac{1}{3}x=\frac{5}{3}$$

Multiply both sides by 3, the reciprocal of \frac{1}{3}.

$$x=\frac{5}{3}\times 3$$

Cancel out 3 and 3.

$$x=5$$
