Question

solve for s.
\\(\frac{7}{12} = s - \frac{1}{12}\\)
\\(s = \square\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Add $\frac{1}{12}$ to both sides

$\frac{7}{12}+\frac{1}{12}=s - \frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{12}$

Step2: Simplify both sides

$\frac{7 + 1}{12}=s$
$\frac{8}{12}=s$

Step3: Reduce the fraction

$s=\frac{2}{3}$

Answer:

$\frac{2}{3}$
