Q. Solve for z z . Express your answer as a proper or improper fraction in simplest terms.\newline23=56+89z \frac{2}{3}=-\frac{5}{6}+\frac{8}{9} z \newlineAnswer: z= z=
  1. Write Equation: First, let's write down the equation we need to solve: 23=56+89z\frac{2}{3} = -\frac{5}{6} + \frac{8}{9}z
  2. Move Term: To solve for zz, we need to isolate zz on one side of the equation. Let's start by moving the term 56-\frac{5}{6} to the other side by adding 56\frac{5}{6} to both sides of the equation:\newline23+56=89z\frac{2}{3} + \frac{5}{6} = \frac{8}{9}z
  3. Add Fractions: Now we need to add the fractions on the left side of the equation. To do this, we need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 33 and 66 is 66, so we will convert 23\frac{2}{3} to have a denominator of 66: \newline23×22=46\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{2}{2} = \frac{4}{6}\newlineNow we can add the fractions:\newline46+56=96\frac{4}{6} + \frac{5}{6} = \frac{9}{6}
  4. Simplify Fraction: Simplify the fraction on the left side of the equation:\newline(9)/(6)(9)/(6) can be simplified to (3)/(2)(3)/(2) because 99 and 66 are both divisible by 33:\newline(9)/(6)=(3×3)/(3×2)=(3)/(2)(9)/(6) = (3 \times 3)/(3 \times 2) = (3)/(2)\newlineSo now we have:\newline(3)/(2)=(8)/(9)z(3)/(2) = (8)/(9)z
  5. Divide by Fraction: To solve for zz, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 89\frac{8}{9}. To divide by a fraction, we multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 89\frac{8}{9} is 98\frac{9}{8}:32×98=z\frac{3}{2} \times \frac{9}{8} = z
  6. Multiply Fractions: Now we multiply the fractions on the left side of the equation:\newline(32)×(98)=(3×92×8)=(2716)(\frac{3}{2}) \times (\frac{9}{8}) = (\frac{3 \times 9}{2 \times 8}) = (\frac{27}{16})\newlineSo, z=(2716)z = (\frac{27}{16})
