2\left(x^{2}-x\right)-c\left(x-2\right)=c\left(3-x\right)
Variable c cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 2c, the least common multiple of c,2.
2x^{2}-2x-c\left(x-2\right)=c\left(3-x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x^{2}-x.
2x^{2}-2x-\left(cx-2c\right)=c\left(3-x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply c by x-2.
2x^{2}-2x-cx+2c=c\left(3-x\right)
To find the opposite of cx-2c, find the opposite of each term.
2x^{2}-2x-cx+2c=3c-cx
Use the distributive property to multiply c by 3-x.
2x^{2}-2x-cx+2c-3c=-cx
Subtract 3c from both sides.
2x^{2}-2x-cx-c=-cx
Combine 2c and -3c to get -c.
2x^{2}-2x-cx-c+cx=0
Add cx to both sides.
2x^{2}-2x-c=0
Combine -cx and cx to get 0.
-2x-c=-2x^{2}
Subtract 2x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-c=-2x^{2}+2x
Add 2x to both sides.
-c=2x-2x^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-c}{-1}=\frac{2x\left(1-x\right)}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
c=\frac{2x\left(1-x\right)}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
c=-2x\left(1-x\right)
Divide 2x\left(1-x\right) by -1.
c=-2x\left(1-x\right)\text{, }c\neq 0
Variable c cannot be equal to 0.
