6\times 3=2\left(n-4\right)+3\times 2
Variable n cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 6n^{2}, the least common multiple of n^{2},3n^{2},2n^{2}.
18=2\left(n-4\right)+3\times 2
Multiply 6 and 3 to get 18.
18=2n-8+3\times 2
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by n-4.
18=2n-8+6
Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.
18=2n-2
Add -8 and 6 to get -2.
2n-2=18
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2n=18+2
Add 2 to both sides.
2n=20
Add 18 and 2 to get 20.
n=\frac{20}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
n=10
Divide 20 by 2 to get 10.
