Solve 1/6(x/2 3/4) = x/2 1/3

Evaluate

\frac{1}{6} (\frac{x}{2} \times \frac{3}{4}) = \frac{x}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}

Remove the parentheses

\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{x}{2} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{x}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}

Multiply

More Steps

\frac{x}{16} = \frac{x}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}

Multiply the terms

More Steps

\frac{x}{16} = \frac{x}{6}

Cross multiply

x \times 6 = 16 x

Simplify the equation

6 x = 16 x

Add or subtract both sides

6 x - 16 x = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

- 10 x = 0

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

10 x = 0

Solution

x = 0

1/6(x/2 3/4) = x/2 1/3
