4\times 4x-15\left(7x+3\right)=24x
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 3,4.
16x-15\left(7x+3\right)=24x
Multiply 4 and 4 to get 16.
16x-105x-45=24x
Use the distributive property to multiply -15 by 7x+3.
-89x-45=24x
Combine 16x and -105x to get -89x.
-89x-45-24x=0
Subtract 24x from both sides.
-113x-45=0
Combine -89x and -24x to get -113x.
-113x=45
Add 45 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\frac{45}{-113}
Divide both sides by -113.
x=-\frac{45}{113}
Fraction \frac{45}{-113} can be rewritten as -\frac{45}{113} by extracting the negative sign.
