@ganeshie8 @Kristen17 Solve for x. Enter your answer below as an improper fraction in lowest terms, using the slash ( / ) as the fraction bar. x-6(9/10)=5/12

OpenStudy (charlotte123):

x - 27/5 = 5/12 <---- + 27/5 + 27/5 Thus x = 349/60.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x - 6(9/10) = 5/12 x - 27/5 = 5/12 x = 349/60

OpenStudy (charlotte123):

(5 x)/5-(27)/5 = 5/12 (5 x)/5-(27)/5 = (5 x-27)/5: (5 x-27)/5 = 5/12 (5 (5 x-27))/5 = 5×5/12 5×5/12 = (5×5)/12: (5 (5 x-27))/5 = (5×5)/12 (5 (5 x-27))/5 = 5/5×(5 x-27) = 5 x - 27 5 x - 27 = (5×5)/12 5×5 = 25: 5 x-27 = 25/12

OpenStudy (charlotte123):

5 x + (27-27) = 25/12+27 27 - 27 = 0 5 x = 25/12+27 5 x = 25/12+(12×27)/12 12×27 = 324 5 x = 25/12 + 324/12 25/12 + 324/12 = (25+324)/12: 5 x = (25+324)/12 25+324 = 349 5 x = 349/12

OpenStudy (charlotte123):

x = 349/(12×5) 12×5 = 60
