Solve x+2/9=3/9

$$x + \frac { 2 } { 9 } = \frac { 3 } { 9 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{1}{9}\approx 0.111111111$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{3}{9} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$x+\frac{2}{9}=\frac{1}{3}$$

Subtract \frac{2}{9} from both sides.

$$x=\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{9}$$

Least common multiple of 3 and 9 is 9. Convert \frac{1}{3} and \frac{2}{9} to fractions with denominator 9.

$$x=\frac{3}{9}-\frac{2}{9}$$

Since \frac{3}{9} and \frac{2}{9} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$x=\frac{3-2}{9}$$

Subtract 2 from 3 to get 1.

$$x=\frac{1}{9}$$
