4\left(x+4\right)-\left(3x+2\right)\times 3=0
Variable x cannot be equal to any of the values -\frac{2}{3},\frac{1}{2} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 4\left(2x-1\right)\left(3x+2\right), the least common multiple of 6x^{2}+x-2,8x-4.
4x+16-\left(3x+2\right)\times 3=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by x+4.
4x+16-\left(9x+6\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 3x+2 by 3.
4x+16-9x-6=0
To find the opposite of 9x+6, find the opposite of each term.
-5x+16-6=0
Combine 4x and -9x to get -5x.
-5x+10=0
Subtract 6 from 16 to get 10.
-5x=-10
Subtract 10 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-10}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
x=2
Divide -10 by -5 to get 2.
