Let's solve the equation step by step, filling in the missing terms and descriptions:

  1. Start with the equation:
    \(3(9w - 1) = 10w - 3\)

  2. Apply the distributive property:
    \(3 \cdot 9w - 3 \cdot 1 = 10w - 3\)
    This simplifies to:
    \(27w - 3 = 10w - 3\)

  3. Add 3 to both sides:
    \(27w - 3 + 3 = 10w - 3 + 3\)
    This simplifies to:
    \(27w = 10w\)

  4. Subtract \(10w\) from both sides:
    \(27w - 10w = 10w - 10w\)
    This simplifies to:
    \(17w = 0\)

  5. Now, divide both sides by 17:
    \(\frac{17w}{17} = \frac{0}{17}\)
    This simplifies to:
    \(w = 0\)

Now, summarizing the steps with the correct terms and descriptions:

  • Apply the distributive property: \(3(9w - 1)\) becomes \(27w - 3\)
  • Add 3 to both sides: \(27w - 3 + 3 = 10w - 3 + 3\)
  • Subtract \(10w\) from both sides: \(27w - 10w = 10w - 10w\)
  • Divide both sides by 17: \(w = 0\)

Thus, the solution to the equation is \(w = 0\).

The answer is:
3(9w–1)=10w–3
27w–3=10w–3
Apply the distributive property
17w–3=–3
Subtract 10w from both sides
17w=0
Add 3 to both sides
w=0
Divide both sides by 17

Thank you for your input. Let's correctly line up the answer step by step while capturing your response with the appropriate context:

  1. Start with the equation:
    \(3(9w - 1) = 10w - 3\)

  2. Apply the distributive property:
    \(3 \cdot 9w - 3 \cdot 1 = 10w - 3\)
    This simplifies to:
    \(27w - 3 = 10w - 3\)

  3. Rewrite:
    \(27w - 3 = 10w - 3\)

  4. Subtract \(10w\) from both sides:
    \(27w - 10w - 3 = -3\)
    This simplifies to:
    \(17w - 3 = -3\)

  5. Add 3 to both sides:
    \(17w - 3 + 3 = -3 + 3\)
    This simplifies to:
    \(17w = 0\)

  6. Finally, divide both sides by 17:
    \(\frac{17w}{17} = \frac{0}{17}\)
    This leads to:
    \(w = 0\)

So, your structured answer is correct, and the full process involved is:

  1. Apply the distributive property: \(3(9w - 1) = 27w - 3\)
  2. Equation after distribution: \(27w - 3 = 10w - 3\)
  3. Subtract \(10w\) from both sides: \(17w - 3 = -3\)
  4. Add 3 to both sides: \(17w = 0\)
  5. Divide both sides by 17: \(w = 0\)

The solution is \(w = 0\). Thank you for your patience, and I hope this reflects the steps accurately!
