Combine $v$ and $\frac{5}{3}$ .

$- \frac{v \cdot 5}{3} + \frac{4}{3} v = \frac{- 2}{7} - \frac{2}{7}$

Move $5$ to the left of $v$ .

$- \frac{5 \cdot v}{3} + \frac{4}{3} v = \frac{- 2}{7} - \frac{2}{7}$

Combine $\frac{4}{3}$ and $v$ .

$- \frac{5 v}{3} + \frac{4 v}{3} = \frac{- 2}{7} - \frac{2}{7}$

Simplify terms.

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$\frac{- 5 v + 4 v}{3} = \frac{- 2}{7} - \frac{2}{7}$

Add $- 5 v$ and $4 v$ .

$\frac{- v}{3} = \frac{- 2}{7} - \frac{2}{7}$

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$- \frac{v}{3} = \frac{- 2}{7} - \frac{2}{7}$

Simplify $\frac{- 2}{7} - \frac{2}{7}$ .

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$- \frac{v}{3} = \frac{- 2 - 2}{7}$

Subtract $2$ from $- 2$ .

$- \frac{v}{3} = \frac{- 4}{7}$

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$- \frac{v}{3} = - \frac{4}{7}$

Multiply both sides of the equation by $- 3$ .

$- 3 \cdot (- \frac{v}{3}) = - 3 \cdot (- \frac{4}{7})$

Simplify both sides of the equation.

Move the leading negative in $- \frac{v}{3}$ into the numerator.

$- 3 \cdot \frac{- v}{3} = - 3 \cdot (- \frac{4}{7})$

Factor $3$ out of $- 3$ .

$3 (- 1) \cdot \frac{- v}{3} = - 3 \cdot (- \frac{4}{7})$

Cancel the common factor.

$3 \cdot - 1 \cdot \frac{- v}{3} = - 3 \cdot (- \frac{4}{7})$

Rewrite the expression.

$- 1 \cdot (- v) = - 3 \cdot (- \frac{4}{7})$

Multiply $- 1$ by $- 3$ .

$v = 3 (\frac{4}{7})$

Combine $3$ and $\frac{4}{7}$ .

$v = \frac{3 \cdot 4}{7}$

Multiply $3$ by $4$ .

$v = \frac{12}{7}$

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

$v = \frac{12}{7}$

Decimal Form:

$v = 1.\overline{714285}$

Mixed Number Form:

$v = 1 \frac{5}{7}$
