\frac{2}{2}+\frac{2}{3}w+\frac{1}{2}=2w
Convert 1 to fraction \frac{2}{2}.
\frac{2+1}{2}+\frac{2}{3}w=2w
Since \frac{2}{2} and \frac{1}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{3}{2}+\frac{2}{3}w=2w
Add 2 and 1 to get 3.
\frac{3}{2}+\frac{2}{3}w-2w=0
Subtract 2w from both sides.
\frac{3}{2}-\frac{4}{3}w=0
Combine \frac{2}{3}w and -2w to get -\frac{4}{3}w.
-\frac{4}{3}w=-\frac{3}{2}
Subtract \frac{3}{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
w=-\frac{3}{2}\left(-\frac{3}{4}\right)
Multiply both sides by -\frac{3}{4}, the reciprocal of -\frac{4}{3}.
w=\frac{-3\left(-3\right)}{2\times 4}
Multiply -\frac{3}{2} times -\frac{3}{4} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
w=\frac{9}{8}
Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{-3\left(-3\right)}{2\times 4}.
