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