x=\frac{x}{2}+\frac{2x}{3\times 2}+500
Multiply \frac{2}{3} times \frac{x}{2} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
x=\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{3}+500
Cancel out 2 in both numerator and denominator.
x=\frac{5}{6}x+500
Combine \frac{x}{2} and \frac{x}{3} to get \frac{5}{6}x.
x-\frac{5}{6}x=500
Subtract \frac{5}{6}x from both sides.
\frac{1}{6}x=500
Combine x and -\frac{5}{6}x to get \frac{1}{6}x.
x=500\times 6
Multiply both sides by 6, the reciprocal of \frac{1}{6}.
x=3000
Multiply 500 and 6 to get 3000.
