2s\left(2x-s\right)=3\left(x-1\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 3,2.
4xs-2s^{2}=3\left(x-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2s by 2x-s.
4xs-2s^{2}=3x-3
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-1.
4xs-2s^{2}-3x=-3
Subtract 3x from both sides.
4xs-3x=-3+2s^{2}
Add 2s^{2} to both sides.
\left(4s-3\right)x=-3+2s^{2}
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(4s-3\right)x=2s^{2}-3
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(4s-3\right)x}{4s-3}=\frac{2s^{2}-3}{4s-3}
Divide both sides by 4s-3.
x=\frac{2s^{2}-3}{4s-3}
Dividing by 4s-3 undoes the multiplication by 4s-3.
