1/x+1/(2x)=1

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{2 x} = 1

x = \frac{3}{2}

Decimal Notation

x = 1.5

Solution steps

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{2 x} = 1

Multiply by LCM

3 = 2 x

Switch sides

2 x = 3

Divide both sides by

2

x = \frac{3}{2}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = \frac{3}{2}

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{2 x} = 2

20 = \frac{24}{a} a - 4

x, y = \frac{z ^{3}}{a x}

\frac{x - 4}{2 x} + 1 = \frac{x + 3}{x}

\frac{6}{x} - \frac{5}{x - 6} + 1 = 0
