what is 11-5=12-

1/3t=1/5

That solution is not correct, the 1/3 is a multiplier so it can't be subtracted.

If the original was
(1/3)t = 1/5
then t = (1/5)*3
t= 3/5

if the poster meant 1/(3t) = 1/5
then 3t = 5
t= 5/3

First, if you have a question, it is much better to put it in as a separate post in <Post a New Question> rather than attaching it to a previous question, where is more likely to be overlooked.

Second, your equation is incomplete. Please repost with the completed equation.

I hope this helps a little, Thanks for asking.

To solve the equation 11-5=12-, we need to complete the missing part after the minus sign. Assuming you mean 12 minus something, we can rewrite the equation as 11 - 5 = 12 - x, where x represents the unknown value we need to find.

To solve for x, we can start by simplifying the equation on both sides.

11 - 5 simplifies to 6, so the equation becomes: 6 = 12 - x.

Next, we want to isolate x. To do this, we can subtract 12 from both sides of the equation.

6 - 12 = 12 - x - 12
-6 = -x

To solve for x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by -1 to cancel out the negative sign.

-(-6) = -x (multiplying both sides by -1)
6 = x

Therefore, the value of x is 6.

For the equation 1/3t = 1/5, you are correct in saying that the 1/3 is a multiplier, so it cannot be subtracted.

To solve for t, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 1/3, which is 3/1 or simply 3.

(1/3t) * 3 = (1/5) * 3
(1/3)*(3/1)*t = (3/5)
1*t = 3/5
t = 3/5

Therefore, the value of t is 3/5.
