2/5x + 7 = 10 - 1/6x
Change fractions to a common denominator, then rewrite problem.
12/30x + 7 = 10 - 5/30x
12/30x + 5/30x +7 -7 = 10 -7 - 5/30x + 5/30x
Or,
12/30x + 7 = 10 - 5/30x
+5/30x -7 = -7 +5/30x
-------------------------------------
17/30x = 3
+7 and -7, -5/30x and +5/30x, cancels out.
17/30x = 3
Divide 17/30 on both sides.
x = 3 / 17/30
Take the reciprocal
x = 3 * 30/17
x = 90/17
