3\left(x-3\right)-24x+8-24=6\left(1-x\right)-1
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 4,3,2,12.
3x-9-24x+8-24=6\left(1-x\right)-1
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-3.
-21x-9+8-24=6\left(1-x\right)-1
Combine 3x and -24x to get -21x.
-21x-1-24=6\left(1-x\right)-1
Add -9 and 8 to get -1.
-21x-25=6\left(1-x\right)-1
Subtract 24 from -1 to get -25.
-21x-25=6-6x-1
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by 1-x.
-21x-25=5-6x
Subtract 1 from 6 to get 5.
-21x-25+6x=5
Add 6x to both sides.
-15x-25=5
Combine -21x and 6x to get -15x.
-15x=5+25
Add 25 to both sides.
-15x=30
Add 5 and 25 to get 30.
x=\frac{30}{-15}
Divide both sides by -15.
x=-2
Divide 30 by -15 to get -2.
