\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1-3x}{3}=\frac{3}{10}\times 5
Multiply both sides by 5.
15x-10\left(1-3x\right)=9\times 5
Multiply both sides of the equation by 30, the least common multiple of 2,3,10.
15x-10+30x=9\times 5
Use the distributive property to multiply -10 by 1-3x.
45x-10=9\times 5
Combine 15x and 30x to get 45x.
45x-10=45
Multiply 9 and 5 to get 45.
45x=45+10
Add 10 to both sides.
45x=55
Add 45 and 10 to get 55.
x=\frac{55}{45}
Divide both sides by 45.
x=\frac{11}{9}
Reduce the fraction \frac{55}{45} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.
