Solve -(1/6divx)=3

$$-( \frac{ 1 }{ 6 } \div x)=3$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{1}{18}\approx -0.055555556$$

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.

$$-\frac{1}{6}=3x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$3x=-\frac{1}{6}$$

Divide both sides by 3.

$$x=\frac{-\frac{1}{6}}{3}$$

Express \frac{-\frac{1}{6}}{3} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{-1}{6\times 3}$$

Multiply 6 and 3 to get 18.

$$x=\frac{-1}{18}$$

Fraction \frac{-1}{18} can be rewritten as -\frac{1}{18} by extracting the negative sign.

$$x=-\frac{1}{18}$$
