3\left(3x-1\right)-12\times 2\left(x+3\right)=4\left(4x+2\right)-300
Multiply both sides of the equation by 60, the least common multiple of 20,5,15.
9x-3-12\times 2\left(x+3\right)=4\left(4x+2\right)-300
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 3x-1.
9x-3-24\left(x+3\right)=4\left(4x+2\right)-300
Multiply -12 and 2 to get -24.
9x-3-24x-72=4\left(4x+2\right)-300
Use the distributive property to multiply -24 by x+3.
-15x-3-72=4\left(4x+2\right)-300
Combine 9x and -24x to get -15x.
-15x-75=4\left(4x+2\right)-300
Subtract 72 from -3 to get -75.
-15x-75=16x+8-300
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 4x+2.
-15x-75=16x-292
Subtract 300 from 8 to get -292.
-15x-75-16x=-292
Subtract 16x from both sides.
-31x-75=-292
Combine -15x and -16x to get -31x.
-31x=-292+75
Add 75 to both sides.
-31x=-217
Add -292 and 75 to get -217.
x=\frac{-217}{-31}
Divide both sides by -31.
x=7
Divide -217 by -31 to get 7.
