Hey!
To solve this problem, we must subtract one over three from both sides of the equation. This will give us x on its own.
Original Equation :
[tex]x + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
New Equation {Added Subtract [tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex] to Both Sides} :
[tex]x + \frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{3} [/tex]
Solution {New Equation Solved} :
[tex]x=- \frac{1}{12} [/tex]
So, this means that in the equation provided, [tex]x=- \frac{1}{12} [/tex].
Hope this helps!
