Answer:

No solution.

Explanation:


\textbf{Given that,}\\\\~~~~~~~~3x = 3(x-1)\\\\\\\implies \frac{3x}3 = (3(x-1))/(3)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;\textbf{Dividing both sides by 3}\\\\\\\implies x = x-1\\\\\\\implies x-x = x-1-x~~~~~~~~~~~~~;\textbf{Subtracting}~ x ~ \textbf{from both sides} \\\\\\\implies 0 = -1\\\\\\\textbf{Which is not true, so there are no solutions.}
