Solve: \[3\left( x+\frac{1}{3} \right)=18\].

Answer:

Since, \[3\left( \text{ }x+\frac{1}{2} \right)=18\] Dividing both sides by 3, we get                                                                                                                            \[x+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{18}{3}\] \[x+\frac{1}{2}=6\] \[x=6-\frac{1}{2}\] [On transposing \[\frac{1}{2}\] to RHS] \[x=\frac{12-1}{2}=\frac{11}{2}\]
