Solve (2(x-3))/3 = (x 1)/2

Evaluate

\frac{2 ( x - 3 )}{3} = \frac{x \times 1}{2}

Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same

\frac{2 ( x - 3 )}{3} = \frac{x}{2}

Cross multiply

2 (x - 3) \times 2 = 3 x

Simplify the equation

4 (x - 3) = 3 x

Expand the expression

More Steps

4 x - 12 = 3 x

Move the variable to the left side

4 x - 12 - 3 x = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

x - 12 = 0

Move the constant to the right side

x = 0 + 12

Solution

x = 12
