5\times 3\left(x-3\right)+2\left(4x-10\times 5\right)=4\times 3\left(x+1\right)+120
Multiply both sides of the equation by 20, the least common multiple of 4,10,5.
15\left(x-3\right)+2\left(4x-10\times 5\right)=4\times 3\left(x+1\right)+120
Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.
15x-45+2\left(4x-10\times 5\right)=4\times 3\left(x+1\right)+120
Use the distributive property to multiply 15 by x-3.
15x-45+2\left(4x-50\right)=4\times 3\left(x+1\right)+120
Multiply 10 and 5 to get 50.
15x-45+8x-100=4\times 3\left(x+1\right)+120
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 4x-50.
23x-45-100=4\times 3\left(x+1\right)+120
Combine 15x and 8x to get 23x.
23x-145=4\times 3\left(x+1\right)+120
Subtract 100 from -45 to get -145.
23x-145=12\left(x+1\right)+120
Multiply 4 and 3 to get 12.
23x-145=12x+12+120
Use the distributive property to multiply 12 by x+1.
23x-145=12x+132
Add 12 and 120 to get 132.
23x-145-12x=132
Subtract 12x from both sides.
11x-145=132
Combine 23x and -12x to get 11x.
11x=132+145
Add 145 to both sides.
11x=277
Add 132 and 145 to get 277.
x=\frac{277}{11}
Divide both sides by 11.
