<PRE><B>Question 175230</B>
To solve this equation group all x on one side and rest on the other side of = sign. Remember that whatever you do to left side of the equation the same you have to do to the right, and opposit. 

x+1=2/3x  subtract 2/3x from both sides so you will not have any x on the right side
x-2/3x-1=2/3x-2/3x  
x-2/3x-1=0    add 1 to both sides to remove number from rigt side (we want only x there)
x-2/3x-1+1=-1
x-2/3x=-1   
3/3x-2/3x=-1
1/3x=-1  /3 multiply by 3 to get just x on the left side
x=-3 </PRE>
