Solve -8/9=-1/6-3/10x

Evaluate

- \frac{8}{9} = - \frac{1}{6} - \frac{3}{10} x

Swap the sides of the equation

- \frac{1}{6} - \frac{3}{10} x = - \frac{8}{9}

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

- \frac{3}{10} x = - \frac{8}{9} + \frac{1}{6}

Add the numbers

More Steps

- \frac{3}{10} x = - \frac{13}{18}

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

\frac{3}{10} x = \frac{13}{18}

Multiply by the reciprocal

\frac{3}{10} x \times \frac{10}{3} = \frac{13}{18} \times \frac{10}{3}

Multiply

x = \frac{13}{18} \times \frac{10}{3}
