1/3(21-3a)=6-a
21/3-3/3 a=6-a
7-a=6-a
-a+a=6-7

Answer:

No solution exist.

Explanation:

The given equation is


(1)/(3)(21-3a)=6-a

Using distributive property we get


(1)/(3)(21)+(1)/(3)(-3a)=6-a


7-a=6-a

Isolate variable terms.


a-a=6-7


0=-1

This statement is false for any value of a because
0\\eq -1

Therefore the given equation has no solution.
