Solve 101/3+131/3+x=404/3

$$10 \frac { 1 } { 3 } + 13 \frac { 1 } { 3 } + x = 40 \frac { 4 } { 3 }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{53}{3} = 17\frac{2}{3} \approx 17.666666667$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.

$$10\times 3+1+13\times 3+1+3x=40\times 3+4$$

Multiply 10 and 3 to get 30.

$$30+1+13\times 3+1+3x=40\times 3+4$$

Add 30 and 1 to get 31.

$$31+13\times 3+1+3x=40\times 3+4$$

Multiply 13 and 3 to get 39.

$$31+39+1+3x=40\times 3+4$$

Add 31 and 39 to get 70.

$$70+1+3x=40\times 3+4$$

Add 70 and 1 to get 71.

$$71+3x=40\times 3+4$$

Multiply 40 and 3 to get 120.

$$71+3x=120+4$$

Add 120 and 4 to get 124.

$$71+3x=124$$

Subtract 71 from both sides.

$$3x=124-71$$

Subtract 71 from 124 to get 53.

$$3x=53$$

Divide both sides by 3.

$$x=\frac{53}{3}$$
