Solve 7/x+3=9

$$\frac{ 7 }{ x } +3=9$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{7}{6} = 1\frac{1}{6} \approx 1.166666667$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$7+x\times 3=9x$$

Subtract 9x from both sides.

$$7+x\times 3-9x=0$$

Combine x\times 3 and -9x to get -6x.

$$7-6x=0$$

Subtract 7 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$-6x=-7$$

Divide both sides by -6.

$$x=\frac{-7}{-6}$$

Fraction \frac{-7}{-6} can be simplified to \frac{7}{6} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$x=\frac{7}{6}$$
