3 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn, 3 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

3 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn, 3 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

Solve

3 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn : x = \frac{7 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

3 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

3

3 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

\frac{3 x}{3} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Simplify

\frac{3 x}{3} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Simplify

\frac{3 x}{3} : x

\frac{3 x}{3}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{3}{3} = 1

= x

Simplify

\frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3} : \frac{7 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{3} = \frac{7 π}{18}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{3}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a} = \frac{b}{c \cdot a}

= \frac{7 π}{6 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

6 \cdot 3 = 18

= \frac{7 π}{18}

= \frac{7 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{7 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{7 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{7 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Solve

3 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn : x = \frac{11 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

3 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

3

3 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

Simplify

\frac{\frac{11 π}{6}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3} : \frac{11 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

\frac{\frac{11 π}{6}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

\frac{\frac{11 π}{6}}{3} = \frac{11 π}{18}

\frac{\frac{11 π}{6}}{3}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a} = \frac{b}{c \cdot a}

= \frac{11 π}{6 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

6 \cdot 3 = 18

= \frac{11 π}{18}

= \frac{11 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{11 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{11 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{11 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{7 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}, x = \frac{11 π}{18} + \frac{2 πn}{3}
