Find the value of $x$:
$3x\ -\ 1\ =\ \frac{x}{5}$


Given: $3x\ -\ 1\ =\ \frac{x}{5}$

To find: Here we have to find the value of $x$ in the given expression $3x\ -\ 1\ =\ \frac{x}{5}$.

Solution:

$3x\ -\ 1\ =\ \frac{x}{5}$

$3x\ -\ \frac{x}{5} \ =\ 1$

$\frac{15x\ -\ x}{5} \ =\ 1$

$\frac{14x}{5} \ =\ 1$

$\mathbf{x\ =\ \frac{5}{14}}$

So, value of $x$ in the given expression $\frac{5}{14}$.
