3x-3-2\left(1+2x\right)<8\left(1-3x\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4, the least common multiple of 4,2. Since 4 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
3x-3-2-4x<8\left(1-3x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 1+2x.
3x-5-4x<8\left(1-3x\right)
Subtract 2 from -3 to get -5.
-x-5<8\left(1-3x\right)
Combine 3x and -4x to get -x.
-x-5<8-24x
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by 1-3x.
-x-5+24x<8
Add 24x to both sides.
23x-5<8
Combine -x and 24x to get 23x.
23x<8+5
Add 5 to both sides.
23x<13
Add 8 and 5 to get 13.
x<\frac{13}{23}
Divide both sides by 23. Since 23 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
