1/((3x-1/3))=12

\frac{1}{( 3 x - \frac{1}{3} )} = 12

x = \frac{5}{36}

Decimal Notation

x = 0.13888 \dots

Solution steps

\frac{1}{( 3 x - \frac{1}{3} )} = 12

Simplify

\frac{1}{3 x - \frac{1}{3}} : \frac{3}{9 x - 1}

\frac{3}{9 x - 1} = 12

Multiply both sides by

9 x - 1

3 = 12 (9 x - 1)

Switch sides

12 (9 x - 1) = 3

Divide both sides by

12

9 x - 1 = \frac{1}{4}

Move

1

to the right side

9 x = \frac{5}{4}

Divide both sides by

9

x = \frac{5}{36}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = \frac{1}{9}

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = \frac{5}{36}

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

\frac{- 6}{x} = \frac{- 14}{x + 4}

- x^{- 2} = - 1

\frac{x - 1}{x + 1} = \frac{5}{11}

\frac{1}{1 - x} = 2
