    x = 13/4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    (2x/3) - (5/3) = (1/2)

    Multiply everything by 3

    2x - 5 = 3/2

    Get the x term on it's own by adding 5 to both sides

    2x = 3/2 + 5

    2x = 3/2 + 10/2

    2x = 13/2

    Divide by 2 to get x on it's own

    x = 13/2 : 2 = 13/2 * 1/2 = 13/4
