3\left(3x-2\right)-4\left(2x+1\right)=6\left(3x+4\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 4,3,2.
9x-6-4\left(2x+1\right)=6\left(3x+4\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 3x-2.
9x-6-8x-4=6\left(3x+4\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by 2x+1.
x-6-4=6\left(3x+4\right)
Combine 9x and -8x to get x.
x-10=6\left(3x+4\right)
Subtract 4 from -6 to get -10.
x-10=18x+24
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by 3x+4.
x-10-18x=24
Subtract 18x from both sides.
-17x-10=24
Combine x and -18x to get -17x.
-17x=24+10
Add 10 to both sides.
-17x=34
Add 24 and 10 to get 34.
x=\frac{34}{-17}
Divide both sides by -17.
x=-2
Divide 34 by -17 to get -2.
