Question

can anybody help me?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to subtract two fractions they have to be on the same denominator.  So, the first thing to do is to put the fractions over a common denominator, we'll go for 30 since it's a multiple of both 3, 5 and 6.

$(\frac{x}{5} * \frac{6}{6}) - (\frac{x}{6} * \frac{5}{5}) = \frac{1}{3} * \frac{10}{10}$

so...

$\frac{6x}{30} - \frac{5x}{30} = \frac{10}{30}$

$\frac{x}{30} = \frac{10}{30}$

So, x = 10

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is last option

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given n expression ,

x/5 - x/6 = 1/3

To solve the equation

Let x/5 - x/6 = 1/3    ----(1)

The LCM = 30

(1) ⇒ 6x/30 - 5x/30 = 1/3

x/30 = 1/3

x = 30/3 = 10

Therefore x = 10

The correct answer is last option
