Solve for c. Express your answer as a proper or improper fraction in simplest terms.
-3/4 = -1/3 + 1/6 c

Answer

To solve for c, follow these steps:

  1. First, isolate the term with c by adding 1/3 to both sides:
    -3/4 + 1/3 = 1/6 c
  2. Find a common denominator for the fractions on the left side. The common denominator for 4 and 3 is 12:
    -9/12 + 4/12 = 1/6 c
  3. Simplify the left side:
    -5/12 = 1/6 c
  4. Multiply both sides by 6 to solve for c:
    c = -5/12 * 6
  5. Simplify the right side:
    c = -5/2

The solution is c = -5/2.
