Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,3.
6-3x+2\left(x-1\right)+6=3\times 4\left(x-2\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 2-x.
6-3x+2x-2+6=3\times 4\left(x-2\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x-1.
6-x-2+6=3\times 4\left(x-2\right)
Combine -3x and 2x to get -x.
4-x+6=3\times 4\left(x-2\right)
Subtract 2 from 6 to get 4.
10-x=3\times 4\left(x-2\right)
Add 4 and 6 to get 10.
10-x=12\left(x-2\right)
Multiply 3 and 4 to get 12.
10-x=12x-24
Use the distributive property to multiply 12 by x-2.
10-x-12x=-24
Subtract 12x from both sides.
10-13x=-24
Combine -x and -12x to get -13x.
-13x=-24-10
Subtract 10 from both sides.
-13x=-34
Subtract 10 from -24 to get -34.
x=\frac{-34}{-13}
Divide both sides by -13.
x=\frac{34}{13}
Fraction \frac{-34}{-13} can be simplified to \frac{34}{13} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
