\frac{3\left(x-\frac{5}{6}\right)^{2}}{3}=\frac{\frac{49}{12}}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
\left(x-\frac{5}{6}\right)^{2}=\frac{\frac{49}{12}}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
\left(x-\frac{5}{6}\right)^{2}=\frac{49}{36}
Divide \frac{49}{12} by 3.
x-\frac{5}{6}=\frac{7}{6} x-\frac{5}{6}=-\frac{7}{6}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x-\frac{5}{6}-\left(-\frac{5}{6}\right)=\frac{7}{6}-\left(-\frac{5}{6}\right) x-\frac{5}{6}-\left(-\frac{5}{6}\right)=-\frac{7}{6}-\left(-\frac{5}{6}\right)
Add \frac{5}{6} to both sides of the equation.
x=\frac{7}{6}-\left(-\frac{5}{6}\right) x=-\frac{7}{6}-\left(-\frac{5}{6}\right)
Subtracting -\frac{5}{6} from itself leaves 0.
x=2
Subtract -\frac{5}{6} from \frac{7}{6} by finding a common denominator and subtracting the numerators. Then reduce the fraction to lowest terms if possible.
x=-\frac{1}{3}
Subtract -\frac{5}{6} from -\frac{7}{6} by finding a common denominator and subtracting the numerators. Then reduce the fraction to lowest terms if possible.
x=2 x=-\frac{1}{3}
The equation is now solved.
