3\left(x+3\right)-12x>2\left(5x-3\right)-12
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,3. Since 6 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
3x+9-12x>2\left(5x-3\right)-12
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x+3.
-9x+9>2\left(5x-3\right)-12
Combine 3x and -12x to get -9x.
-9x+9>10x-6-12
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 5x-3.
-9x+9>10x-18
Subtract 12 from -6 to get -18.
-9x+9-10x>-18
Subtract 10x from both sides.
-19x+9>-18
Combine -9x and -10x to get -19x.
-19x>-18-9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
-19x>-27
Subtract 9 from -18 to get -27.
x<\frac{-27}{-19}
Divide both sides by -19. Since -19 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x<\frac{27}{19}
Fraction \frac{-27}{-19} can be simplified to \frac{27}{19} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
