Solve 1/5x+1/3=4/3

$$\frac { 1 } { 5 } x + \frac { 1 } { 3 } = \frac { 4 } { 3 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract \frac{1}{3} from both sides.

$$\frac{1}{5}x=\frac{4}{3}-\frac{1}{3}$$

Since \frac{4}{3} and \frac{1}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{1}{5}x=\frac{4-1}{3}$$

Subtract 1 from 4 to get 3.

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

Divide 3 by 3 to get 1.

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

Multiply both sides by 5, the reciprocal of \frac{1}{5}.

$$x=1\times 5$$

Multiply 1 and 5 to get 5.

$$x=5$$
