x=2
1:Subtract 2x from both sides.
2:Combine 2/3 x and -2x to get -4/3
3:Subtract 3/8 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
4:Multiply both sides by -3/4,the reciprocal of -4/3
5:Multiply − 3/8 times − 4/ 3 by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
6:Do the multiplications in the fraction −8(−3) over 3x4.
x=24/12
Divide 24 by 12 to get 2.
