-%282%2F3%29h=-22.......both sides multiply by 3
-3%282%2F3%29h=-22%2A3
-cross%283%29%282%2Fcross%283%29%29h=-66
-2h=-66....both sides divide by -2
%28-2%2F-2%29h=-66%2F-2
highlight%28h=33%29...solution
check:
go to -%282%2F3%29h=-22 and plug in highlight%28h=33%29; if the left side of equation is same as the right side, then our solution is correct
-%282%2F3%2933=-22
-%282%2Fcross%283%29%29cross%2833%2911=-22
-2%2A11=-22
-22=-22.......so,our solution is correct
