Description

This example involves solving a one-variable equation that may include additional complexities such as fractions or decimals. Solving such equations requires careful manipulation to isolate the variable. The process typically involves clearing fractions by multiplying through by a common denominator or decimals by multiplying by powers of ten. Once simplified, the equation can be solved using standard algebraic techniques like combining like terms and performing inverse operations. This example emphasizes the importance of precision and logical reasoning in solving equations, as well as the need to verify solutions by substituting them back into the original equation.
