First of write your problem so it's readable,
-3/5+w/2=-4/3 is more understandable.
.
.
Multiply both sides by 5*2*3 (30) to eliminate the fractions.

Then gather all constants on one side (add 18 to both sides), all w terms on the other.
Multiply both sides by the multiplicative inverse (2) of the coefficient of w to get the final answer.
