x+2-2\left(2x-3\right)-3\left(x-2\right)=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 6,3,2.
x+2-4x+6-3\left(x-2\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 2x-3.
-3x+2+6-3\left(x-2\right)=0
Combine x and -4x to get -3x.
-3x+8-3\left(x-2\right)=0
Add 2 and 6 to get 8.
-3x+8-3x+6=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by x-2.
-6x+8+6=0
Combine -3x and -3x to get -6x.
-6x+14=0
Add 8 and 6 to get 14.
-6x=-14
Subtract 14 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-14}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
x=\frac{7}{3}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-14}{-6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -2.
