3\left(y-z\right)-\left(x-3\right)=2\left(2x-1\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,6,3.
3y-3z-\left(x-3\right)=2\left(2x-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by y-z.
3y-3z-x+3=2\left(2x-1\right)
To find the opposite of x-3, find the opposite of each term.
3y-3z-x+3=4x-2
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 2x-1.
3y-3z-x+3-4x=-2
Subtract 4x from both sides.
3y-3z-5x+3=-2
Combine -x and -4x to get -5x.
-3z-5x+3=-2-3y
Subtract 3y from both sides.
-5x+3=-2-3y+3z
Add 3z to both sides.
-5x=-2-3y+3z-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
-5x=-5-3y+3z
Subtract 3 from -2 to get -5.
-5x=-3y+3z-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-5x}{-5}=\frac{-3y+3z-5}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
x=\frac{-3y+3z-5}{-5}
Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.
x=\frac{3y}{5}-\frac{3z}{5}+1
Divide -5-3y+3z by -5.
3\left(y-z\right)-\left(x-3\right)=2\left(2x-1\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,6,3.
3y-3z-\left(x-3\right)=2\left(2x-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by y-z.
3y-3z-x+3=2\left(2x-1\right)
To find the opposite of x-3, find the opposite of each term.
3y-3z-x+3=4x-2
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 2x-1.
3y-x+3=4x-2+3z
Add 3z to both sides.
3y+3=4x-2+3z+x
Add x to both sides.
3y+3=5x-2+3z
Combine 4x and x to get 5x.
3y=5x-2+3z-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
3y=5x-5+3z
Subtract 3 from -2 to get -5.
3y=5x+3z-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{5x+3z-5}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
y=\frac{5x+3z-5}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
y=\frac{5x}{3}+z-\frac{5}{3}
Divide 5x-5+3z by 3.
