Solve x-1/12=3/4

$$x - \frac { 1 } { 12 } = \frac { 3 } { 4 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{5}{6}\approx 0.833333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add \frac{1}{12} to both sides.

$$x=\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{12}$$

Least common multiple of 4 and 12 is 12. Convert \frac{3}{4} and \frac{1}{12} to fractions with denominator 12.

$$x=\frac{9}{12}+\frac{1}{12}$$

Since \frac{9}{12} and \frac{1}{12} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$x=\frac{9+1}{12}$$

Add 9 and 1 to get 10.

$$x=\frac{10}{12}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{10}{12} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=\frac{5}{6}$$
