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.

x=2
