Solve 2(1-x)=-2/3

$$2 ( 1 - x ) = - \frac { 2 } { 3 }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{4}{3} = 1\frac{1}{3} \approx 1.333333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by 2.

$$1-x=\frac{-\frac{2}{3}}{2}$$

Express \frac{-\frac{2}{3}}{2} as a single fraction.

$$1-x=\frac{-2}{3\times 2}$$

Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.

$$1-x=\frac{-2}{6}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-2}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

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

Subtract 1 from both sides.

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

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.

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

Since -\frac{1}{3} and \frac{3}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

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

Subtract 3 from -1 to get -4.

$$-x=-\frac{4}{3}$$

Multiply both sides by -1.

$$x=\frac{4}{3}$$
