Solve x+2/6=4/2

$$x + \frac { 2 } { 6 } = \frac { 4 } { 2 }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{5}{3} = 1\frac{2}{3} \approx 1.666666667$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{4}{2}$$

Divide 4 by 2 to get 2.

$$x+\frac{1}{3}=2$$

Subtract \frac{1}{3} from both sides.

$$x=2-\frac{1}{3}$$

Convert 2 to fraction \frac{6}{3}.

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

Since \frac{6}{3} and \frac{1}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

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

Subtract 1 from 6 to get 5.

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