1.8- 3.7x = 4.2x + 0.3

Move 4.2x to the other side

Sign changes from +4.2x to -4.2x

1.8-3.7x-4.2x= 4.2x-4.2x+0.3

1.8-3.7x-4.2x= 0.3

1.8-7.9x= 0.3

Move 1.8 to the other side

Sign changes from +1.8 to -1.8

1.8-1.8-7.9x= 0.3-1.8

-7.9x= 0.3-1.8

-7.9x= -1.5

divide both sides by -7.9

-7.9/-7.9x= -1.5/-7.9

x= 0.18987341

Answer: x= 0.18987341
