m\times 3-3x_{2}m=2m+2
Variable m cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by m.
m\times 3-3x_{2}m-2m=2
Subtract 2m from both sides.
m-3x_{2}m=2
Combine m\times 3 and -2m to get m.
\left(1-3x_{2}\right)m=2
Combine all terms containing m.
\frac{\left(1-3x_{2}\right)m}{1-3x_{2}}=\frac{2}{1-3x_{2}}
Divide both sides by -3x_{2}+1.
m=\frac{2}{1-3x_{2}}
Dividing by -3x_{2}+1 undoes the multiplication by -3x_{2}+1.
m=\frac{2}{1-3x_{2}}\text{, }m\neq 0
Variable m cannot be equal to 0.
m\times 3-3x_{2}m=2m+2
Multiply both sides of the equation by m.
-3x_{2}m=2m+2-m\times 3
Subtract m\times 3 from both sides.
-3x_{2}m=-m+2
Combine 2m and -m\times 3 to get -m.
\left(-3m\right)x_{2}=2-m
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-3m\right)x_{2}}{-3m}=\frac{2-m}{-3m}
Divide both sides by -3m.
x_{2}=\frac{2-m}{-3m}
Dividing by -3m undoes the multiplication by -3m.
x_{2}=\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{3m}
Divide -m+2 by -3m.
