Solve x-2/4+1/3=x-2x-1/3

Evaluate

x - \frac{2}{4} + \frac{1}{3} = x - 2 x - \frac{1}{3}

Cancel equal terms on both sides of the expression

- \frac{2}{4} + \frac{1}{3} = - 2 x - \frac{1}{3}

Simplify

More Steps

- \frac{1}{6} = - 2 x - \frac{1}{3}

Swap the sides of the equation

- 2 x - \frac{1}{3} = - \frac{1}{6}

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

- 2 x = - \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{3}

Add the numbers

More Steps

- 2 x = \frac{1}{6}

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

2 x = - \frac{1}{6}

Multiply by the reciprocal

2 x \times \frac{1}{2} = - \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{2}

Multiply

x = - \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{2}
