Question

What is the solution to the equation 1/2x+3 =2/3x+1 ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lcm of 2 and 3 is 6, we can multiply 6 to both sides to get 6((1/2)*x+3) = 6((2/3)*x+1). We can distribute into the parenthesis to get 3x+18=4x+6. We can subtract 18 from both sides resulting in 3x=4x-12. Since there is only 1 more x on the RHS (Right Hand Side) and there is a -12, we know that x must be equal to 12!
