6x=30+13

x=43/6

Answer 2

Answer:

43/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the other number be x

So, -13/6 + x =5

      x= 5 - (-13/6)

      x= 5 + 13/6                              5= 5/1   Take LCM OF 1 and 6= 6

      x= 30/6 + 13/6                                 Thus, 5/1= 5*6/1*6= 30/6

      x= (30 + 13) /6                                                           13/6=13/6

      x= 43/6
