Answer:
x = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming the equation looks like this:
Here's how to solve for x:
(subtract 5 from both sides)
(Find the GCF of 3 and 9, which is 3. Multiply 2/3 by 3/3. You get 6/9)
(add like terms)
(multiply 9/5 to both sides, which is the same as dividing both sides by 5/9)
x = 27
