3\times 3\left(x-2\right)+6x-12x=6\left(x-1\right)-3\times 2\left(x+2\right)+2
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 4,2,6.
9\left(x-2\right)+6x-12x=6\left(x-1\right)-3\times 2\left(x+2\right)+2
Multiply 3 and 3 to get 9.
9x-18+6x-12x=6\left(x-1\right)-3\times 2\left(x+2\right)+2
Use the distributive property to multiply 9 by x-2.
15x-18-12x=6\left(x-1\right)-3\times 2\left(x+2\right)+2
Combine 9x and 6x to get 15x.
3x-18=6\left(x-1\right)-3\times 2\left(x+2\right)+2
Combine 15x and -12x to get 3x.
3x-18=6x-6-3\times 2\left(x+2\right)+2
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x-1.
3x-18=6x-6-6\left(x+2\right)+2
Multiply -3 and 2 to get -6.
3x-18=6x-6-6x-12+2
Use the distributive property to multiply -6 by x+2.
3x-18=-6-12+2
Combine 6x and -6x to get 0.
3x-18=-18+2
Subtract 12 from -6 to get -18.
3x-18=-16
Add -18 and 2 to get -16.
3x=-16+18
Add 18 to both sides.
3x=2
Add -16 and 18 to get 2.
x=\frac{2}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
