Solve 1/3x-5/6=0

$$\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } x- \frac{ 5 }{ 6 } =0$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{5}{2} = 2\frac{1}{2} = 2.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add \frac{5}{6} to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.

$$\frac{1}{3}x=\frac{5}{6}$$

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

$$x=\frac{5}{6}\times 3$$

Express \frac{5}{6}\times 3 as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{5\times 3}{6}$$

Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.

$$x=\frac{15}{6}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{15}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$x=\frac{5}{2}$$
