Solve the equation:

\[ x - \frac{2}{7} = 3 \]

Choose the correct answer:

A. \( x = -3 \frac{2}{7} \)

B. \( x = -2 \frac{5}{4} \)

C. \( x = 2 \frac{5}{7} \)

D. \( x = 3 \frac{2}{7} \)

First we need to group like terms: x − 7 2 ​ = 3
We do this by adding 7 2 ​ to both sides: x = 3 7 2 ​

first, we get the placeholders on one side x-2/7=3 add 2/7 to both sides x=3+2/7 3=21/7 x=21/7+2/7 x=23/7 x=3 and 2/7 so the answer is D
