1-x=x-\frac{3}{3}+\frac{2}{3}
Convert -1 to fraction -\frac{3}{3}.
1-x=x+\frac{-3+2}{3}
Since -\frac{3}{3} and \frac{2}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
1-x=x-\frac{1}{3}
Add -3 and 2 to get -1.
1-x-x=-\frac{1}{3}
Subtract x from both sides.
1-2x=-\frac{1}{3}
Combine -x and -x to get -2x.
-2x=-\frac{1}{3}-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-2x=-\frac{1}{3}-\frac{3}{3}
Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.
-2x=\frac{-1-3}{3}
Since -\frac{1}{3} and \frac{3}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
-2x=-\frac{4}{3}
Subtract 3 from -1 to get -4.
x=\frac{-\frac{4}{3}}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x=\frac{-4}{3\left(-2\right)}
Express \frac{-\frac{4}{3}}{-2} as a single fraction.
x=\frac{-4}{-6}
Multiply 3 and -2 to get -6.
x=\frac{2}{3}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-4}{-6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -2.
