(2x)/3-1= x/3+4

\frac{2 x}{3} - 1 = \frac{x}{3} + 4

x = 15

Solution steps

\frac{2 x}{3} - 1 = \frac{x}{3} + 4

Multiply both sides by

3

2 x - 3 = x + 12

Move

3

to the right side

2 x = x + 15

Move

x

to the left side

x = 15

2 x - \frac{x + 3}{5} = - 1 \frac{1}{2}

\frac{x}{2} + 6 = 4

\frac{4 m}{14} = 18

\frac{x - 4}{8} - 5 = 0

26 - 4 x = 9 x
