5\times 3x-700=2000-4\times 3x
Multiply both sides of the equation by 20, the least common multiple of 4,5.
15x-700=2000-4\times 3x
Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.
15x-700=2000-12x
Multiply -4 and 3 to get -12.
15x-700+12x=2000
Add 12x to both sides.
27x-700=2000
Combine 15x and 12x to get 27x.
27x=2000+700
Add 700 to both sides.
27x=2700
Add 2000 and 700 to get 2700.
x=\frac{2700}{27}
Divide both sides by 27.
x=100
Divide 2700 by 27 to get 100.
