With this problem, you have to do order of operations.
you do the multiplying first (the part in parenthesis)
(5 x 1/3) - (3 x 2/3)
5/3 - 6/3 = -1/3
2x-x-7=0
3x-7=0
add 7 to 7 and 0, so then we cross out 7-7, and then
3x=7, bc u change the subtraction to addition, sr if thst doesn't make sense but 3x=7 is the answer
mark me as brainlist thank you
