x/9 +3 = 8 - x/3

Solve??????

First, get rid of the fractions to make the equation easier to solve for x.

Let's multiply every term by 9:

9 [x/9 + 3 = 8 - x/3]

x + 27 = 72 - 3x

4x = 45

x = 45/4

Substitute 45/4 for x in the original equation to check. It always helps to check your work!

I hope this will help.
