3\times 3\left(t+2\right)=4\times 2\left(2t+3\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 4,3.
9\left(t+2\right)=4\times 2\left(2t+3\right)
Multiply 3 and 3 to get 9.
9t+18=4\times 2\left(2t+3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 9 by t+2.
9t+18=8\left(2t+3\right)
Multiply 4 and 2 to get 8.
9t+18=16t+24
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by 2t+3.
9t+18-16t=24
Subtract 16t from both sides.
-7t+18=24
Combine 9t and -16t to get -7t.
-7t=24-18
Subtract 18 from both sides.
-7t=6
Subtract 18 from 24 to get 6.
t=\frac{6}{-7}
