Solve x+11/12=5/6

$$x+ \frac{ 11 }{ 12 } = \frac{ 5 }{ 6 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{1}{12}\approx -0.083333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract \frac{11}{12} from both sides.

$$x=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{11}{12}$$

Least common multiple of 6 and 12 is 12. Convert \frac{5}{6} and \frac{11}{12} to fractions with denominator 12.

$$x=\frac{10}{12}-\frac{11}{12}$$

Since \frac{10}{12} and \frac{11}{12} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$x=\frac{10-11}{12}$$

Subtract 11 from 10 to get -1.

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