Given


(x+3)/(3)=(y+2)/(2)

To find the value of x/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,


(x+3)/(3)=(y+2)/(2)

That implies,


\begin{gathered} (x+3)/(3)=(y+2)/(2) \\ (x)/(3)+(3)/(3)=(y)/(2)+(2)/(2) \\ (x)/(3)+1=(y)/(2)+1 \\ (x)/(3)=(y)/(2)+1-1 \\ (x)/(3)=(y)/(2) \end{gathered}

Hence, x/3 = y/2.
