x+2\left(3x-2\right)=2\left(x-3\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4, the least common multiple of 4,2.
x+6x-4=2\left(x-3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 3x-2.
7x-4=2\left(x-3\right)
Combine x and 6x to get 7x.
7x-4=2x-6
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x-3.
7x-4-2x=-6
Subtract 2x from both sides.
5x-4=-6
Combine 7x and -2x to get 5x.
5x=-6+4
Add 4 to both sides.
5x=-2
Add -6 and 4 to get -2.
x=\frac{-2}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=-\frac{2}{5}
Fraction \frac{-2}{5} can be rewritten as -\frac{2}{5} by extracting the negative sign.
