3x+2\times 2x=3\left(7+3x\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,3.
3x+4x=3\left(7+3x\right)
Multiply 2 and 2 to get 4.
7x=3\left(7+3x\right)
Combine 3x and 4x to get 7x.
7x=21+9x
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 7+3x.
7x-9x=21
Subtract 9x from both sides.
-2x=21
Combine 7x and -9x to get -2x.
x=\frac{21}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x=-\frac{21}{2}
Fraction \frac{21}{-2} can be rewritten as -\frac{21}{2} by extracting the negative sign.
