6\times 9x-2\left(6x-3\right)-3\left(4x-2\right)=15\left(x-1\right)+9
Multiply both sides of the equation by 30, the least common multiple of 5,15,10,2.
54x-2\left(6x-3\right)-3\left(4x-2\right)=15\left(x-1\right)+9
Multiply 6 and 9 to get 54.
54x-12x+6-3\left(4x-2\right)=15\left(x-1\right)+9
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 6x-3.
42x+6-3\left(4x-2\right)=15\left(x-1\right)+9
Combine 54x and -12x to get 42x.
42x+6-12x+6=15\left(x-1\right)+9
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by 4x-2.
30x+6+6=15\left(x-1\right)+9
Combine 42x and -12x to get 30x.
30x+12=15\left(x-1\right)+9
Add 6 and 6 to get 12.
30x+12=15x-15+9
Use the distributive property to multiply 15 by x-1.
30x+12=15x-6
Add -15 and 9 to get -6.
30x+12-15x=-6
Subtract 15x from both sides.
15x+12=-6
Combine 30x and -15x to get 15x.
15x=-6-12
Subtract 12 from both sides.
15x=-18
Subtract 12 from -6 to get -18.
x=\frac{-18}{15}
Divide both sides by 15.
x=-\frac{6}{5}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-18}{15} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
