(3 x - 70) \times 3 = - \frac{x}{3} \times 3

Simplify the equation

More Steps

9 x - 210 = - \frac{x}{3} \times 3

Simplify the equation

9 x - 210 = - x

Move the variable to the left side

9 x - 210 + x = 0

Add the terms

More Steps

10 x - 210 = 0

Move the constant to the right side

10 x = 0 + 210

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

10 x = 210

Divide both sides

\frac{10 x}{10} = \frac{210}{10}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{210}{10}
