\frac{4}{5}+\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{1}{2}x=-\frac{1}{5}
Subtract \frac{1}{2}x from both sides.
\frac{4}{5}-\frac{1}{6}x=-\frac{1}{5}
Combine \frac{1}{3}x and -\frac{1}{2}x to get -\frac{1}{6}x.
-\frac{1}{6}x=-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{4}{5}
Subtract \frac{4}{5} from both sides.
-\frac{1}{6}x=\frac{-1-4}{5}
Since -\frac{1}{5} and \frac{4}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
-\frac{1}{6}x=\frac{-5}{5}
Subtract 4 from -1 to get -5.
-\frac{1}{6}x=-1
Divide -5 by 5 to get -1.
x=-\left(-6\right)
Multiply both sides by -6, the reciprocal of -\frac{1}{6}.
x=6
Multiply -1 and -6 to get 6.
