2=\left(3x-4\right)\times 2+2-x
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{4}{3} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3x-4, the least common multiple of 3x-4,4-3x.
2=6x-8+2-x
Use the distributive property to multiply 3x-4 by 2.
2=6x-6-x
Add -8 and 2 to get -6.
2=5x-6
Combine 6x and -x to get 5x.
5x-6=2
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
5x=2+6
Add 6 to both sides.
5x=8
Add 2 and 6 to get 8.
x=\frac{8}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
