2/3 a - 1/6 = 1/3

answer this math question asap pls​

a=3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Get 2/3a by itself.

•Turn 1/3 to 2/6 by multiplying 1/3 by 2/2.

•Because you only add and subtract like denominators

This will make it look like:

2/3a - 1/6 = 2/6

Then, add 1/6 to both sides to get 2/3a by itself.

It'll look like this:

2/3a = 3/6

2. Get a by itself.

•Multiply the reciprocal (opposite) of 2/3 to get a alone.

This will look like:

(3/2) • 2/3a = (3/2) • 3/6

a = 18/24

3. Simplify.

Find the largest number that can simplify the equation.

For example, 18 ÷ 3 = 6, and 24 ÷ 3 = 8.

But the largest number you can divide both sides by is 6.

18 ÷ 6 = 3 and 24 ÷ 6 = 4.

3/4.

all of the measures need to be converted to the same measure; such as inches. if you do that it is easy to determine which is the longest, 2500 mm which is approximately 97.5 inches.
