(3x / x-1) = 2 or
(3x / x-1) = (2/1) (these equations are the same)...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To find the value of x :
3x / x-1 = 2/1 (cross multiply) and you'll get
(3x) (1) = 2 (x-1)
3x = 2x -2 (move 2x to d other side & dont 4get to change d sign)
3x - 2x = -2
x = -2
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The value of x is -2
