Answer:

6 and 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 x - 1/8 = 11/12

First, let's find the least common denominator (24) to make these fractions manageable to work with: 4/24 x - 3/24 = 22/24.

Next, add 3/24 to both sides: 4/24 x = 25/24.

We can cancel out the denominators at this point to get: 4x=25.

Divide both side by 4, and x = 25/4 = 6 and 1/4 or 6.25
