3\left(6x-4\right)=9-5\times 3\left(x-2\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 15, the least common multiple of 5,3.
18x-12=9-5\times 3\left(x-2\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 6x-4.
18x-12=9-15\left(x-2\right)
Multiply -5 and 3 to get -15.
18x-12=9-15x+30
Use the distributive property to multiply -15 by x-2.
18x-12=39-15x
Add 9 and 30 to get 39.
18x-12+15x=39
Add 15x to both sides.
33x-12=39
Combine 18x and 15x to get 33x.
33x=39+12
Add 12 to both sides.
33x=51
Add 39 and 12 to get 51.
x=\frac{51}{33}
Divide both sides by 33.
x=\frac{17}{11}
Reduce the fraction \frac{51}{33} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
