x + x/3 + x/4 = 2

12(x + x/3 + x/4) = 12(2)

12x + 4x + 3x = 24

19x = 24

x = 24/19

x is a common factor at the left hand side, so take it out, x( 1+1/3+1/4)=4

The numbers inside the brackets are the numbers that can get you back to the original equation when you multiply them by x ( common factor)

You have x(19/12)=4..........19/12 comes from adding numbers in brackets.

Divide both sides by 19/12 to isolate x

X=48/19

Clear!!

12x + 4x + 3x = 24

19x = 24

x = 24/19 = 1.263

x= 1.263
