Solve for xx in the equation 1+65x=31 + \frac{6}{5x} = 3.

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. The given equation is 1+65x=31 + \frac{6}{5x} = 3.
2. We need to solve for xx.

STEP 2

To isolate the term containing xx, we need to move the constant term on the left side of the equation to the right side.
1+65x1=311 + \frac{6}{5x} - 1 = 3 - 1

STEP 3

Perform the subtraction on both sides of the equation.
65x=2\frac{6}{5x} = 2

STEP 4

To solve for xx, we need to isolate xx by multiplying both sides of the equation by 5x5x.
5x65x=25x5x \cdot \frac{6}{5x} = 2 \cdot 5x

STEP 5

On the left side of the equation, the 5x5x in the numerator and denominator cancel each other out, leaving us with 66.
6=10x6 = 10x

STEP 6

Now, divide both sides of the equation by 1010 to solve for xx.
610=10x10\frac{6}{10} = \frac{10x}{10}

STEP 7

Simplify both sides of the equation.
35=x\frac{3}{5} = x
Therefore, x=35x = \frac{3}{5}.
