f_{1}\times 3\left(3x+1\right)=3\left(3x+1\right)\times \frac{2}{3}-3\times 2
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{1}{3} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3\left(3x+1\right), the least common multiple of 3,3x+1.
9xf_{1}+f_{1}\times 3=3\left(3x+1\right)\times \frac{2}{3}-3\times 2
Use the distributive property to multiply f_{1}\times 3 by 3x+1.
9xf_{1}+f_{1}\times 3=2\left(3x+1\right)-3\times 2
Multiply 3 and \frac{2}{3} to get 2.
9xf_{1}+f_{1}\times 3=6x+2-3\times 2
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 3x+1.
9xf_{1}+f_{1}\times 3=6x+2-6
Multiply -3 and 2 to get -6.
9xf_{1}+f_{1}\times 3=6x-4
Subtract 6 from 2 to get -4.
9xf_{1}+f_{1}\times 3-6x=-4
Subtract 6x from both sides.
9xf_{1}-6x=-4-f_{1}\times 3
Subtract f_{1}\times 3 from both sides.
9xf_{1}-6x=-4-3f_{1}
Multiply -1 and 3 to get -3.
\left(9f_{1}-6\right)x=-4-3f_{1}
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(9f_{1}-6\right)x=-3f_{1}-4
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(9f_{1}-6\right)x}{9f_{1}-6}=\frac{-3f_{1}-4}{9f_{1}-6}
Divide both sides by -6+9f_{1}.
x=\frac{-3f_{1}-4}{9f_{1}-6}
Dividing by -6+9f_{1} undoes the multiplication by -6+9f_{1}.
x=-\frac{3f_{1}+4}{3\left(3f_{1}-2\right)}
Divide -4-3f_{1} by -6+9f_{1}.
x=-\frac{3f_{1}+4}{3\left(3f_{1}-2\right)}\text{, }x\neq -\frac{1}{3}
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{1}{3}.
