Solve 1/4+1/4+1/4=1/x

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

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{4}{3} = 1\frac{1}{3} \approx 1.333333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 4x, the least common multiple of 4,x.

$$4x\times \frac{1}{4}+4x\times \frac{1}{4}+4x\times \frac{1}{4}=4$$

Cancel out 4 and 4.

$$x+4x\times \frac{1}{4}+4x\times \frac{1}{4}=4$$

Cancel out 4 and 4.

$$x+x+4x\times \frac{1}{4}=4$$

Combine x and x to get 2x.

$$2x+4x\times \frac{1}{4}=4$$

Cancel out 4 and 4.

$$2x+x=4$$

Combine 2x and x to get 3x.

$$3x=4$$

Divide both sides by 3.

$$x=\frac{4}{3}$$
