Answer:

[tex]x = \frac{32}{45}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]1 * (2\frac{2}{3}) = \frac{1}{2}x + 3\frac{1}{4}x[/tex]

Required

Solve for x

Express all fractions as improper

[tex]1 * \frac{8}{3} = \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{13}{4}x[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]1 * \frac{8}{3} = \frac{2 + 13}{4}x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{3} = \frac{15}{4}x[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]15x * 3 = 4 * 8[/tex]

[tex]45x = 32[/tex]

Make x the subject

[tex]x = \frac{32}{45}[/tex]
