To solve the equation algebraically, we need to isolate the variable x.
First, let's get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by the denominator, which is 3:
3 * 6 = 3 * (x + 2/3)
18 = 3x + 2
Next, let's isolate the term with x by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:
18 - 2 = 3x + 2 - 2
16 = 3x
To find the value of x, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 3:
16/3 = 3x/3
Simplifying the right side:
16/3 = x
Therefore, the value of x is 16/3.
