2/3x = 1 5/7
multiple the reciprocal of 2/3 on both sides to isolate x
3/2(2/3)x = 12/7(3/2)
x = 18/7 or 2 4/7

2/3x=a million/3x+5/7 come to a decision for x stability the equation 2/3x = a million/3x + 5/7 -a million/3 -a million/3x a million/3x = 5/7 (on the comparable time as study a million divided via making use of three circumstances x = 5 divided via making use of seven) proceed balanceing the equation a million/3x = 5/7 x3 x3 1x = 15/7 get rid of the only by way of fact any form prolonged via making use of itself is itself. x = 15/7 decrease lower back if required x= 2 a million/7

I assume that x is at the bottom.
2/3x=12/7
12*3x=7*2
36x=14
x=14/36
x=7/18.

(2/3)x = 1 5/7
(2/3)x = 12/7
i take it that the x is on the top.
mult both sides by 3/2
x= 12*3/7*2
= 6*3/7
=18/7
= 2 4/7

Easy. Just divide 1 5/7 by 2/3.
2 4/7 is the answer.

okay first find a common denominator.
lets use 21.
2/3x = 1 5/7
14/21x = 36/21
now divide 36/21 by 14/21.
x = 2 4/7 or 18/7
