$x+\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{x}=3-\frac{1}{x}$
Learn how to solve rational equations problems step by step online. Solve the rational equation x+1/x=3. We need to isolate the dependent variable x, we can do that by simultaneously subtracting \frac{1}{x} from both sides of the equation. Canceling terms on both sides. Combine all terms into a single fraction with x as common denominator. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
