3x=\left(x+1464\right)\sqrt{3}
Variable x cannot be equal to -1464 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3\left(x+1464\right), the least common multiple of 1464+x,3.
3x=x\sqrt{3}+1464\sqrt{3}
Use the distributive property to multiply x+1464 by \sqrt{3}.
3x-x\sqrt{3}=1464\sqrt{3}
Subtract x\sqrt{3} from both sides.
-\sqrt{3}x+3x=1464\sqrt{3}
Reorder the terms.
\left(-\sqrt{3}+3\right)x=1464\sqrt{3}
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(3-\sqrt{3}\right)x=1464\sqrt{3}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(3-\sqrt{3}\right)x}{3-\sqrt{3}}=\frac{1464\sqrt{3}}{3-\sqrt{3}}
Divide both sides by -\sqrt{3}+3.
x=\frac{1464\sqrt{3}}{3-\sqrt{3}}
Dividing by -\sqrt{3}+3 undoes the multiplication by -\sqrt{3}+3.
x=732\sqrt{3}+732
Divide 1464\sqrt{3} by -\sqrt{3}+3.
