What plus 4/2 equals 7/6?

Here we will show you how to calculate "what" in this sentence: "What plus 4/2 equals 7/6?" We start by making this word problem into an algebraic equation where "what" is the variable "x".

x + 4/2 = 7/6

To solve this equation, we want x alone on the left side of the equation so we start by subtracting 4/2 on both sides like this:

x + 4/2 - 4/2 = 7/6 - 4/2

x + 4/2 - 4/2 leaves x and 7/6 - 4/2 is -5/6 which means we end up with x = -5/6. Therefore, the answer to "What plus 4/2 equals 7/6?" is as follows:

-5/6

It is always good to double-check your math to make sure you did it right. When we entered -5/6 for x in this equation x + 4/2 = 7/6, we get the following true equation which means our math is correct.

-5/6 + 4/2 = 7/6
