Solve x-18-(18+50%)-(18*2/3)=10

$$x - 18 - ( 18 + 50 \% ) - ( 18 \times \frac { 2 } { 3 } ) = 10$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{117}{2} = 58\frac{1}{2} = 58.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{50}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 50.

$$x-18-\left(18+\frac{1}{2}\right)-18\times \frac{2}{3}=10$$

Convert 18 to fraction \frac{36}{2}.

$$x-18-\left(\frac{36}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\right)-18\times \frac{2}{3}=10$$

Since \frac{36}{2} and \frac{1}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$x-18-\frac{36+1}{2}-18\times \frac{2}{3}=10$$

Add 36 and 1 to get 37.

$$x-18-\frac{37}{2}-18\times \frac{2}{3}=10$$

Convert -18 to fraction -\frac{36}{2}.

$$x-\frac{36}{2}-\frac{37}{2}-18\times \frac{2}{3}=10$$

Since -\frac{36}{2} and \frac{37}{2} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$x+\frac{-36-37}{2}-18\times \frac{2}{3}=10$$

Subtract 37 from -36 to get -73.

$$x-\frac{73}{2}-18\times \frac{2}{3}=10$$

Express 18\times \frac{2}{3} as a single fraction.

$$x-\frac{73}{2}-\frac{18\times 2}{3}=10$$

Multiply 18 and 2 to get 36.

$$x-\frac{73}{2}-\frac{36}{3}=10$$

Divide 36 by 3 to get 12.

$$x-\frac{73}{2}-12=10$$

Convert 12 to fraction \frac{24}{2}.

$$x-\frac{73}{2}-\frac{24}{2}=10$$

Since -\frac{73}{2} and \frac{24}{2} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$x+\frac{-73-24}{2}=10$$

Subtract 24 from -73 to get -97.

$$x-\frac{97}{2}=10$$

Add \frac{97}{2} to both sides.

$$x=10+\frac{97}{2}$$

Convert 10 to fraction \frac{20}{2}.

$$x=\frac{20}{2}+\frac{97}{2}$$

Since \frac{20}{2} and \frac{97}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$x=\frac{20+97}{2}$$

Add 20 and 97 to get 117.

$$x=\frac{117}{2}$$
