993=x77I will try to solve your equation.
33=0.012987x(Simplify both sides of the equation)
33+0.012987012987012988x=0.012987x+0.012987012987012988x
(Add -0.012987012987012988x to both sides)
0.012987x+33=00.012987x+33+−33=0+−33(Add -33 to both sides)
0.012987x=−33(0.012987x)(−0.012987012987012988)=(−33)(−0.012987012987012988)
(Divide both sides by -0.012987012987012988)
x=2541


ANSWER: 99/3=2541/77 OR x=2541
