2\left(x-1\right)=x+2+18
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 3,6.
2x-2=x+2+18
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x-1.
2x-2=x+20
Add 2 and 18 to get 20.
2x-2-x=20
Subtract x from both sides.
x-2=20
Combine 2x and -x to get x.
x=20+2
Add 2 to both sides.
x=22
Add 20 and 2 to get 22.
