To eliminate the fractions in the equation
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{2} x - \frac{5}{4} + 2 x = \frac{5}{6} + x, \][/tex]
we need to find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of the denominators. Let's identify the denominators in the equation: [tex]\(2, 4,\)[/tex] and [tex]\(6\)[/tex].

The LCM of 2, 4, and 6 is 12.

Thus, each term in the equation can be multiplied by 12 to clear the fractions.
