1.2x+3-1.8x=0
Subtract 1.8x from both sides.
-0.6x+3=0
Combine 1.2x and -1.8x to get -0.6x.
-0.6x=-3
Subtract 3 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-3}{-0.6}
Divide both sides by -0.6.
x=\frac{-30}{-6}
Expand \frac{-3}{-0.6} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
x=5
Divide -30 by -6 to get 5.
