Step-by-step explanation:

x+6/11=10/11

This is a linear equation, because x has no power, so it will be solved by making x the subject of the equation.

Make x the subject

x+6/11=10/11

x=-6/11+10/11

x=10/11-6/11

Since both fractions have the same denominator, the LCM remains 11

x = (10-6) / 11

x=4/11

To check if the answer is correct, we substitute x for 4/11 in the equation. And both sides of the equation must be equal

x+6/11=10/11

4/11+6/11=10/11

(4+6) / 11=10/11

10/11=10/11
