3^{x}+2\times 3^{x}=3
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
3\times 3^{x}=3
Combine 3^{x} and 2\times 3^{x} to get 3\times 3^{x}.
3^{x}=\frac{3}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
3^{x}=1
Divide 3 by 3 to get 1.
\log(3^{x})=\log(1)
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
x\log(3)=\log(1)
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
x=\frac{\log(1)}{\log(3)}
Divide both sides by \log(3).
x=\log_{3}\left(1\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
