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...
