+x%2B4%2F3=10%2F7++
Multiply both sides by +21+
+21x+%2B+28+=+30+
+21x+=+2+
+x+=+2%2F21+
check:
+x%2B4%2F3=10%2F7++
+2%2F21+%2B+4%2F3=10%2F7++
+2%2F21+%2B+28%2F21+=+30%2F21+
+30%2F21+=+30%2F21+
OK

x%2B4%2F3=10%2F7
x=10%2F7-4%2F3......common denominator is 21
x=10%2A3%2F%287%2A3%29-4%2A7%2F%283%2A7%29
x=30%2F21-28%2F21
x=%2830-28%29%2F21
x=2%2F21
x=0.095
