Answer:

x = 2/3

Explanation:

Given that:

2/3x-2=1/3x-3/2

Taking terms with x to left side others to right side:

2/3x -1/3x = -3/2 + 2 (signs of transferred terms will be changed)

As denominators are same:

(2-1)/3x = -3/2 + 2(2/2) (Taking LCM on lright side)

1/3x = -3/2 + 4/2

1/3x = (-3+4)/2

1/3x = 1/2

Taking cross product:

1*2 = 1*3x

2 = 3x

Dividing both sides by 3 we get:

2/3 = 3/3 x

2/3 = x

OR

x = 2/3

I hope it will help You!
