xy-zx=6
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
\left(y-z\right)x=6
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(y-z\right)x}{y-z}=\frac{6}{y-z}
Divide both sides by y-z.
x=\frac{6}{y-z}
Dividing by y-z undoes the multiplication by y-z.
x=\frac{6}{y-z}\text{, }x\neq 0
Variable x cannot be equal to 0.
xy-zx=6
Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
xy=6+zx
Add zx to both sides.
xy=xz+6
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{xy}{x}=\frac{xz+6}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
y=\frac{xz+6}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
y=z+\frac{6}{x}
Divide 6+zx by x.
