    x=2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1 - Make sure variables are on one side and numbers on the other

    Subtract both sides by 35/45

    x/18 = 8/9 - 35/45

    2 - Find the LCM and subtract the right side

    LCM is 45 (9x5 is 45, and 45 x 1 is 45)

    8/9 x 5/5 = 40/45

    40/45 - 35/45 = 5/45 = 1/9

    x/18 = 1/9

    Multiply both sides by 18 to get x alone

    x = 1/9 x 18 = 18/9 = 2
