2\left(-2\right)\left(2\left(x-1\right)-x+2\right)-3\left(3\left(x+1\right)+x-2\right)=-3
Multiply both sides of the equation by 10, the least common multiple of 5,10.
-4\left(2\left(x-1\right)-x+2\right)-3\left(3\left(x+1\right)+x-2\right)=-3
Multiply 2 and -2 to get -4.
-4\left(2x-2-x+2\right)-3\left(3\left(x+1\right)+x-2\right)=-3
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x-1.
-4\left(x-2+2\right)-3\left(3\left(x+1\right)+x-2\right)=-3
Combine 2x and -x to get x.
-4x-3\left(3\left(x+1\right)+x-2\right)=-3
Add -2 and 2 to get 0.
-4x-3\left(3x+3+x-2\right)=-3
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x+1.
-4x-3\left(4x+3-2\right)=-3
Combine 3x and x to get 4x.
-4x-3\left(4x+1\right)=-3
Subtract 2 from 3 to get 1.
-4x-12x-3=-3
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by 4x+1.
-16x-3=-3
Combine -4x and -12x to get -16x.
-16x=-3+3
Add 3 to both sides.
-16x=0
Add -3 and 3 to get 0.
x=0
Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since -16 is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.
