Subtract the numbers
−299x
−299x−2
−299x−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−299x=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−299x=2
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
299x=−2
Divide both sides
299299x=299−2
Divide the numbers
x=299−2
