    x=10

    Step-by-step explanation:

    2/3x = x - 10/3

    2/3x-x=-10/3

    2/3x-3/3x=-10/3

    -1/3x=-10/3

    x = (-10/3) : (-1/3)

    x = (-10/3) * (-3/1)

    x=10

    x = 4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    from the question in order to get the value of x we go by simplifying the expression

    2/3x = x - 10/3

    2/3x = (3x - 10) / 3 ... finding the LCM

    now the next step foe us is to cross multiply the left hand side and right hand side.

    2 * 3 = 9x - 30

    6 = 9x - 30

    6 + 30 = 9x

    36 = 9x

    divide both sides by the coefficient of x

    36/9 = 9x/9

    4 = x

    therefore x = 4
