Solve x-7/6=1/3

$$x - \frac { 7 } { 6 } = \frac { 1 } { 3 }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{3}{2} = 1\frac{1}{2} = 1.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add \frac{7}{6} to both sides.

$$x=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{7}{6}$$

Least common multiple of 3 and 6 is 6. Convert \frac{1}{3} and \frac{7}{6} to fractions with denominator 6.

$$x=\frac{2}{6}+\frac{7}{6}$$

Since \frac{2}{6} and \frac{7}{6} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$x=\frac{2+7}{6}$$

Add 2 and 7 to get 9.

$$x=\frac{9}{6}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{9}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

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