4\left(5x-2\right)-3\left(x-8\right)<6\left(x+14\right)-24
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 3,4,2. Since 12 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
20x-8-3\left(x-8\right)<6\left(x+14\right)-24
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 5x-2.
20x-8-3x+24<6\left(x+14\right)-24
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by x-8.
17x-8+24<6\left(x+14\right)-24
Combine 20x and -3x to get 17x.
17x+16<6\left(x+14\right)-24
Add -8 and 24 to get 16.
17x+16<6x+84-24
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x+14.
17x+16<6x+60
Subtract 24 from 84 to get 60.
17x+16-6x<60
Subtract 6x from both sides.
11x+16<60
Combine 17x and -6x to get 11x.
11x<60-16
Subtract 16 from both sides.
11x<44
Subtract 16 from 60 to get 44.
x<\frac{44}{11}
Divide both sides by 11. Since 11 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
x<4
Divide 44 by 11 to get 4.
