h=9

Explanation:

When dealing with linear equations, you must always isolate the variable/pronumeral. We must first get rid of -1.83.

To do that, perform the opposite operation of that number on both sides as so:

h/3-1.83+1.83color(white)("d")=color(white)("d")1.17+1.83

h/3color(white)("d")=color(white)("d")3

Now, we can do the same for the division section.

h/3xx3color(white)("d")=color(white)("d")3xx3

hcolor(white)("d")=color(white)("d")9

Remember to isolate the variable/pronumeral and do the inverse operations of the constants.
