%282%2F3%29x+-+1%2F2+=+6%28x+%2B+7%2F6%29

%282%2F3%29x+-+1%2F2+=+6x+%2B+7%2A6%2F6

%282%2F3%29x+-+1%2F2+=+6x+%2B+7%2Across%286%29%2Fcross%286%29

%282%2F3%29x+-+1%2F2+=+6x+%2B+7

+-1%2F2-7+=+6x+-%282%2F3%29x.....both sides multiply by 6

+-%281%2F2%296-7%2A6+=+6%2A6x+-6%282%2F3%29x

+-3-42+=+36x+-4x

+-45+=+32x

+-45%2F32+=+x
+-1.40625+=+x
