4\left(x-1\right)-12=3\left(x-2\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 3,4.
4x-4-12=3\left(x-2\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by x-1.
4x-16=3\left(x-2\right)
Subtract 12 from -4 to get -16.
4x-16=3x-6
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-2.
4x-16-3x=-6
Subtract 3x from both sides.
x-16=-6
Combine 4x and -3x to get x.
x=-6+16
Add 16 to both sides.
x=10
Add -6 and 16 to get 10.
