\frac{5}{3 x} = 6

x = \frac{5}{18}

Decimal

x = 0.27777 \dots

Solution steps

\frac{5}{3 x} = 6

Multiply both sides by

x

\frac{5}{3} = 6 x

Switch sides

6 x = \frac{5}{3}

Divide both sides by

6

x = \frac{5}{18}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = \frac{5}{18}

\frac{x - 5}{2 x} = \frac{8}{5}

x = 1 \frac{1}{x}

\frac{3 x - 2}{5 x + 4} = \frac{6}{7}

\frac{1}{y} + \frac{5}{y} = 0

\frac{6}{14} = \frac{5}{n}
