Question 274800: Solve the equation.
3(6 - 3x) = 1/27

3(6 - 3x) = 1/27
18-9x=1/27
-9x=1/27-18
-9x=(1-18*27)/27
-9x=(1-486)/27
-9x=-485/27
x=(-485/27)/(-9)
x=-485/27*1/-9
x=-485/-243
x=485/243 ans.
Proof:
3(6-3*485/243)=1/27
3(6-1,455/243)=1/27
3(1,458-1,455)/243=1/27
3(3/143)=1/27
9/243=1/27
1/27=1/27
