Question

3x-1/3=5 Solve this equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

$x = \frac{16}{3}$

or

$x = \frac{16}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

1 )

$\frac{3x-1}{3} = 5$

$3x - 1 = 5 \times 3$

$3x - 1 = 15$

$3x = 15 + 1$

$3x = 16\\x = \frac{16}{3}$

OR

$3x - \frac{1}{3} = 5\\3x = 5 + \frac{1}{3}\\3x = \frac{15 + 1}{3}\\3x = \frac{16}{3}\\x = \frac{16}{3 \times 3}\\x = \frac{16}{9}$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

question) 3x-1/3=5

1) Multiply the numbers :-

= 3x- 1 . 1/3 = 5

= 3x - 1/3 = 5

2) Add 1/3 to both sides of the equation :-

= 3x - 1/3 = 5

= 3x - 1/3 + 1/3 = 5 + 1/3

3) simplify

= 3x - 1/3 + 1/3 = 5+ 1/3

= 3x = 5 + 1/3

= 3x = 16/ 3

3x = 16/3

4) Divide both sides of the equation by the same term:-

= 3x = 16/3

= 3x/3 = 16/3/3

5) Simplify

5.1) Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator:-

= 3x/3 = 16/3/3

x = 16/3/3

5.2) Divide the numbers:-

x = 16/3/3

x= 16/ 9

Hence, x is equals to 16/9

Your answer is 16/ 9
