DETAILED EXPLANATION


Look at x%2F3%2B13=highlight_red%28+94+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+-94+%29
It becomes x%2F3%2B13-highlight_green%28+94+%29=0.

Look at x%2F3%2Bhighlight_red%28+13+%29-highlight_red%28+94+%29=0.
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes x%2F3%2Bhighlight_green%28+-81+%29=0.

Look at x%2F3%2Bhighlight_red%28+-81+%29=0.
Removed extra sign in front of -81
It becomes x%2F3-highlight_green%28+81+%29=0.

Look at highlight_red%28+x%2F3-81+%29=0.
Solved linear equation highlight_red%28+x%2F3-81=0+%29 equivalent to 0.333333333333333*x-81 =0
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
This is an equation! Solutions: x=243.
