First find your common denominator

In this problem 2 and 6 have a common denominator of 6 so 1/6 will stay the same.
1/2 will change to 3/6 because 2 goes into 6 3 times and we multiply the top number by 3.  So the new equation is:

3/6 = X+ 1/6  subtract 1/6 from both sides
3/6 - 1/6 = X
2/6 = X or which reduces to 1/3
