How do you solve #x/12 - 1/3=5/6#? Algebra Linear Equations Two-Step Equations and Properties of Equality 1 Answer Shwetank Mauria Mar 7, 2016 #x=14# Explanation: Let us first multiply each component of the equation by #12# (LCM of denominators, #12,3,6#). Hence equation becomes #x/12xx12−1/3xx12=5/6xx12# or #x-4=10#. Transposing #4# to other side, we get #x=10+4=14# Answer link Related questions How do you solve two step equations?
