15\left(k-2\right)=10\left(4-3k\right)-6\left(2-k\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 30, the least common multiple of 2,3,5.
15k-30=10\left(4-3k\right)-6\left(2-k\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 15 by k-2.
15k-30=40-30k-6\left(2-k\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 10 by 4-3k.
15k-30=40-30k-12+6k
Use the distributive property to multiply -6 by 2-k.
15k-30=28-30k+6k
Subtract 12 from 40 to get 28.
15k-30=28-24k
Combine -30k and 6k to get -24k.
15k-30+24k=28
Add 24k to both sides.
39k-30=28
Combine 15k and 24k to get 39k.
39k=28+30
Add 30 to both sides.
39k=58
Add 28 and 30 to get 58.
k=\frac{58}{39}
Divide both sides by 39.
