Find the opposite of adding 15. So it would be subtracting 15. So subtract 15 on both sides. So it would have 2/3x on the left and then 2 on the other side. (2/3x=2) Now find the opposite of multiplying 2/3. It is dividing 23/3. So divide 23/3 on both sides. So multiply 2/3 times 1/2. It would equal 3. x = 3
Hope this helps. :-)
