Question

\(\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{1}{2}x=\dfrac{7}{12}\)

Answer 1

\(\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{1}{2}x=\dfrac{7}{12}\)

\(\Leftrightarrow\dfrac{8}{12}x-\dfrac{6}{12}x=\dfrac{7}{12}\)

\(\Leftrightarrow\dfrac{2}{12}x=\dfrac{7}{12}\)

\(\Leftrightarrow x=\dfrac{7}{2}\)

Answer 2

2/3x-1/2x=7/12

x.(2/3-1/2)=7/12

x.1/6        =7/12

    x          =7/12:1/6

    x          =7/2
