\left(3-\frac{4x}{3}\right)x_{1}=20
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
3x_{1}+\left(-\frac{4x}{3}\right)x_{1}=20
Use the distributive property to multiply 3-\frac{4x}{3} by x_{1}.
3x_{1}+\frac{-4xx_{1}}{3}=20
Express \left(-\frac{4x}{3}\right)x_{1} as a single fraction.
\frac{-4xx_{1}}{3}=20-3x_{1}
Subtract 3x_{1} from both sides.
-4xx_{1}=60-9x_{1}
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.
\left(-4x_{1}\right)x=60-9x_{1}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-4x_{1}\right)x}{-4x_{1}}=\frac{60-9x_{1}}{-4x_{1}}
Divide both sides by -4x_{1}.
x=\frac{60-9x_{1}}{-4x_{1}}
Dividing by -4x_{1} undoes the multiplication by -4x_{1}.
x=\frac{9}{4}-\frac{15}{x_{1}}
Divide 60-9x_{1} by -4x_{1}.
\left(3-\frac{4x}{3}\right)x_{1}=20
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
3x_{1}+\left(-\frac{4x}{3}\right)x_{1}=20
Use the distributive property to multiply 3-\frac{4x}{3} by x_{1}.
3x_{1}+\frac{-4xx_{1}}{3}=20
Express \left(-\frac{4x}{3}\right)x_{1} as a single fraction.
9x_{1}-4xx_{1}=60
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.
\left(9-4x\right)x_{1}=60
Combine all terms containing x_{1}.
\frac{\left(9-4x\right)x_{1}}{9-4x}=\frac{60}{9-4x}
Divide both sides by 9-4x.
x_{1}=\frac{60}{9-4x}
Dividing by 9-4x undoes the multiplication by 9-4x.
