Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,3.
9x+2\left(5x+2\right)-3\left(x+1\right)=48x
Multiply 3 and 3 to get 9.
9x+10x+4-3\left(x+1\right)=48x
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 5x+2.
19x+4-3\left(x+1\right)=48x
Combine 9x and 10x to get 19x.
19x+4-3x-3=48x

16x+4-3=48x
Combine 19x and -3x to get 16x.
16x+1=48x
Subtract 3 from 4 to get 1.
16x+1-48x=0
Subtract 48x from both sides.
-32x+1=0
Combine 16x and -48x to get -32x.
-32x=-1
Subtract 1 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-1}{-32}
Divide both sides by -32.
x=\frac{1}{32}
Fraction \frac{-1}{-32} can be simplified to \frac{1}{32} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
