Set it equal to zero, then solve.
3x-1=0
Add one to both sides.
3x=1
Divide by three to get x by itself.
x=1/3

Because without an equality sign it can not be considered to be an equation and therefore has no solution.
Without an equality sign it cannot be classed as an equation therefore it follows that there is no solution.
The solution to an inequality generally is a region with one more dimension. If the inequality/equation is of the form x < a or x = a then the solution to the inequality is the 1 dimensional line segment while the solution to the equality is a point which has no dimensions. If the inequality/equation is in 2 dimensions, the solution to the inequality is an area whereas the solution to the equality is a 1-d line or curve. And so on, in higher dimensional spaces.
Without an equality sign the given expression is not an equation
