I'm assuming that this is :

 

[X-3 ] / X = [ X-3 ] / [X-6]      if so .....cross - multiply

 

[x -3] [x - 6]  = [x] [x - 3]   simplify

 

x^2 - 9x + 18  = x^2 - 3x       subtract x^2 from both sides, add 3x to both sides

 

-6x  + 18  = 0      

 

-6x = - 18     divide both sides by -6

 

x = 3

 

cool cool cool
