Full solution

Q. x20=23x x-20=\frac{2}{3} x
  1. Isolate x terms: Step 11: Isolate x terms on one side.\newlinex23x=20x - \frac{2}{3}x = 20
  2. Combine like terms: Step 22: Combine like terms.\newline(123)x=20(1 - \frac{2}{3})x = 20\newline(13)x=20(\frac{1}{3})x = 20
  3. Solve for x: Step 33: Solve for xx by multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of 13\frac{1}{3}.x=20×(31)x = 20 \times \left(\frac{3}{1}\right)x=60x = 60
