Question 432193: This is the equation:
((( (2 over x+3) + (1 over x) = (4 over 3x) )))
When I say over, I mean it is a fraction.
So far I've tried multiplying the whole thing by 3x, but its not right. Help?

2/(x+3) + 1/x = 4/3x
=> 2/(x+3) = 4/3x - 1/x
=> 2/(x+3) = [4 - 3]/3x
=> 2/(x+3) = 1/3x
=> 6x = x+3
=> 5x = 3
=> x = 3/5
so, x = 3/5
