Question

plz i want to know step by step how to do this. i don't want direct answers, thanks i know the answer too, just wanna review this
Solve for x : 2/3 (x - 4) = 2x

Answer 1

at first try to get rid of the fraction by hitting both sides with 3/2
now we will have x-4 = 3x
now simply take all x's to side
and numbers to side
2x = -4
x = -4 /2
x = -2

Answer 2

hitting both sides by 3/2 means multiplying it by that? kinda need t know lol

Answer 3

cause 2 x 3/2 = 3

so do you do that anytime when you have a problem like this

Answer 4

Yep , I love using strange math expressions

Answer 5

OK i did it a different way and still got -2 thanks

x =2 ?

Answer 7
