Multiply both sides of the equation by 18, the least common multiple of 3,2,9.
24-12x-9\left(1-2x\right)=2\left(10+x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by 4-2x.
24-12x-9+18x=2\left(10+x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -9 by 1-2x.
15-12x+18x=2\left(10+x\right)
Subtract 9 from 24 to get 15.
15+6x=2\left(10+x\right)
Combine -12x and 18x to get 6x.
15+6x=20+2x
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 10+x.
15+6x-2x=20
Subtract 2x from both sides.
15+4x=20
Combine 6x and -2x to get 4x.
4x=20-15
Subtract 15 from both sides.
4x=5
Subtract 15 from 20 to get 5.
x=\frac{5}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
