6\left(5+x\right)+3\left(2x+1\right)-6\times 6x=-5x+5\left(3x+1\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 30, the least common multiple of 5,10,6.
30+6x+3\left(2x+1\right)-6\times 6x=-5x+5\left(3x+1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by 5+x.
30+6x+6x+3-6\times 6x=-5x+5\left(3x+1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 2x+1.
30+12x+3-6\times 6x=-5x+5\left(3x+1\right)
Combine 6x and 6x to get 12x.
33+12x-6\times 6x=-5x+5\left(3x+1\right)
Add 30 and 3 to get 33.
33+12x-36x=-5x+5\left(3x+1\right)
Multiply -6 and 6 to get -36.
33-24x=-5x+5\left(3x+1\right)
Combine 12x and -36x to get -24x.
33-24x=-5x+15x+5
Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by 3x+1.
33-24x=10x+5
Combine -5x and 15x to get 10x.
33-24x-10x=5
Subtract 10x from both sides.
33-34x=5
Combine -24x and -10x to get -34x.
-34x=5-33
Subtract 33 from both sides.
-34x=-28
Subtract 33 from 5 to get -28.
x=\frac{-28}{-34}
Divide both sides by -34.
x=\frac{14}{17}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-28}{-34} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -2.
