3\left(3x+1\right)=10x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 6x, the least common multiple of 2x,3.
9x+3=10x
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 3x+1.
9x+3-10x=0
Subtract 10x from both sides.
-x+3=0
Combine 9x and -10x to get -x.
-x=-3
Subtract 3 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=3
Multiply both sides by -1.
