myininaya (myininaya):
\[\frac{12(x+1)}{4}-\frac{12(2x-1)}{6}=12x\]
i multiplied everything by 12
\[3(x+1)-2(2x-1)=12x\]

idk wat have you tried so far
myininaya (myininaya):
3x+3-4x+2=12x
-x+5=12x
5=12x+x
5=13x
x=5/13
OpenStudy (annon):
(6(x+1)-(4(2x-1))/24 = x

get the 24 over by multiplyiing both sides by 24...
(6(x+1)-(4(2x-1))=24x
OpenStudy (annon):
distribute...
6x+6-8x+4=24x
myininaya (myininaya):
x=10/26=5/13
OpenStudy (annon):
oops ya add

so... -2x+10=24x then 10=24x+2x and x=10/26
