7v+1/18 = 5/6

Answer 1

Fractions are just division.  If it's really confusing you, you can get rid of them by multiplication.

Your denominators are 6 and 18.  The least common denominator, then, is 18.  So, let's multiply through by that:

18(7v) + 18(1/18) = 18(5/6)

126v + 1 = 15

You should be able to solve it from there.
