How do you solve #t - \frac { 1} { 9} = \frac { 1} { 6} #?

Explanation:
#"to eliminate the fractions multiply ALL terms by the "#
#color(blue)"lowest common multiple of 9 and 6"#
#"the lowest common multiple of 9 and 6 is 18"#
#18t-(cancel(18)^2xx1/cancel(9)^1)=cancel(18)^3xx1/cancel(6)^1#
#rArr18t-2=3larrcolor(blue)"no fractions"#
#"add 2 to both sides"#
#18tcancel(-2)cancel(+2)=3+2#
#rArr18t=5#
#"divide both sides by 18"#
#(cancel(18) t)/cancel(18)=5/18#
#rArrt=5/18#
#color(blue)"As a check"# Substitute this value into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then it is the solution.
#"left side "=5/18-1/9=5/18-2/18=3/18=1/6#
#rArrt=5/18" is the solution"#
The answer is
#5/18#
Explanation:
Add
#\frac{1}{9}# to both sides
#t=\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{6}#
#t=\frac{5}{18}#
See the answer below...
Explanation:
Nothing to do than to add
#1/9# both side...
#t-1/9=1/6#
#=>t-1/9+1/9=1/6+1/9#
#=>t=(1xx3)/(6xx3)+(1xx2)/(9xx2#
#=>t=3/18+2/18#
#=>t=5/18# [ANSWER]Hope this helps...
Thank you...
