Step-by-step explanation:

To solve:

3x = 2/3 ;

Solve for "x" ;

Multiply EACH side of the equation by "1/3" ;

to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ; as follows:

(1/3) * (3x) = (2/3) * (1/3) ;

to get :

x = (2*1) / (3*3) = 2/9 .

The answer is: " 2/9 " .

x = " 2/9 " .
