Multiply 0.1 and 3 to get 0.3.
0.7x+0.3=0.4x+1.2
Use the distributive property to multiply 0.4 by x+3.
0.7x+0.3-0.4x=1.2
Subtract 0.4x from both sides.
0.3x+0.3=1.2
Combine 0.7x and -0.4x to get 0.3x.
0.3x=1.2-0.3
Subtract 0.3 from both sides.
0.3x=0.9
Subtract 0.3 from 1.2 to get 0.9.
x=\frac{0.9}{0.3}
Divide both sides by 0.3.
x=\frac{9}{3}
Expand \frac{0.9}{0.3} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
