Amanda tells you that because a variable is in the denominator, the equation 3/x + 1/3 = 5/6 becomes unsolvable. Amanda explains, "There is a value for x that makes the denominator zero, and you can't divide by zero." Demonstrate to Amanda how the equation is still solvable and explain your reasoning.
