Solve for \( k \) in the equation:

\[ k + \frac{3}{4} = \frac{5}{3} - \frac{1}{3} \]

Asked by Amiri

Answer (2)

k+3 3/4=5 2/3-1 1/3 k+3 3/4=4 1/3 lets find the lcm first then multiply both sides by it but first change it to improper fraction LCM is 12
[k+15/4]=[13/3]12 12k+45=52 12k=7 k=7/12

To find k in the equation k + 4 3 ​ = 3 5 ​ − 3 1 ​ , simplify the right side to get 3 4 ​ . Then solve for k by subtracting 4 3 ​ and converting the fractions for a common denominator, leading to k = 12 7 ​ .
