12\times 3+4\times 8-2=11x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 12x, the least common multiple of x,3x,6x,12.
36+32-2=11x
Do the multiplications.
68-2=11x
Add 36 and 32 to get 68.
66=11x
Subtract 2 from 68 to get 66.
11x=66
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x=\frac{66}{11}
Divide both sides by 11.
x=6
Divide 66 by 11 to get 6.
