1.If needed, change any mixed fractions to improper fractions. For example, change 2 1/3 to 7/3.
2.Identify the simplest method of isolating the unknown x to only one side of the equation.
3.Cross multiply both sides by the same values. For example, pick the denominator from one side to be the numerator of the new multiplier on both sides.
4.If you need to simplify the equation one step at a time, do so by repeating step 3 as needed.
5.If needed, change any remaining improper fractions to mixed fractions.
