Question

How do you solve `(5v) / 6 + 7 / 6 = 1 / 12`?

Answer 1

`v=-13/10`

Explanation:

First, we'll simplify the left side:
`(5v)/6+7/6=1/12`
`(5v+7)/6=1/12`
Then multiple both sides by 12 t
To get rid of the fractions:
`(5v+7)/6*12=1/12*12`
`2(5v+7)=1`
Then expand and rearrange to get `v` alone on one side:
`5v+7=1/2`
`5v=1/2-7`
`5v=-13/2`
`v=-13/10`
