Solve 3(x-1)=2(3x-9)

Evaluate

3 (x - 1) = 2 (3 x - 9)

Calculate

More Steps

3 x - 3 = 2 (3 x - 9)

Calculate

More Steps

3 x - 3 = 6 x - 18

Move the expression to the left side

3 x - 3 - (6 x - 18) = 0

Calculate

More Steps

- 3 x + 15 = 0

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

- 3 x = 0 - 15

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

- 3 x = - 15

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

3 x = 15

Divide both sides

\frac{3 x}{3} = \frac{15}{3}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{15}{3}
