Here, 2/3x = -12
2x = -12 * 3
2x = -36
x = -36/2
x = -18

In short, Your Answer would be -18

Hope this helps!

The answer is x = -13. This is because first, we need to multiply 3 to both sides (so that it's going to be easier to isolate x). So now we have 2x = - 36. Next, you divide 2 to both sides (to isolate x). Therefore, you now have x = -13. I hope this helps :D
