Solve x-71/3=-32/3

$$x-7 \frac{ 1 }{ 3 } =-3 \frac{ 2 }{ 3 }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{11}{3} = 3\frac{2}{3} \approx 3.666666667$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.

$$3x-\left(7\times 3+1\right)=-\left(3\times 3+2\right)$$

Multiply 7 and 3 to get 21.

$$3x-\left(21+1\right)=-\left(3\times 3+2\right)$$

Add 21 and 1 to get 22.

$$3x-22=-\left(3\times 3+2\right)$$

Multiply 3 and 3 to get 9.

$$3x-22=-\left(9+2\right)$$

Add 9 and 2 to get 11.

$$3x-22=-11$$

Add 22 to both sides.

$$3x=-11+22$$

Add -11 and 22 to get 11.

$$3x=11$$

Divide both sides by 3.

$$x=\frac{11}{3}$$
