((Σ_(j=1) ^(x−1) j)/x)=((x−1)/2)=3 ⇒ x=7
$$\frac{\underset{{j}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{{x}−\mathrm{1}} {\sum}}{j}}{{x}}=\frac{{x}−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}=\mathrm{3}\:\Rightarrow\:{x}=\mathrm{7} \\ $$

    3x = (x−1)+(x−2)+.....+1   0 =(−1)+(−2)+(−3)+(x−4)+.....+1   0 = −6 + (x−4)+.....+1   6 = (x−4)+.....+1   6 = (((x−4)(x−3))/2)   12 = (x−4)(x−3)   12 = x^2 −7x+12   0 = x^2 −7x   0 = x(x−7)   x = 7
