6X-\left(2X-4\right)+6=-4X+8
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
6X-2X-\left(-4\right)+6=-4X+8
To find the opposite of 2X-4, find the opposite of each term.
6X-2X+4+6=-4X+8
The opposite of -4 is 4.
4X+4+6=-4X+8
Combine 6X and -2X to get 4X.
4X+10=-4X+8
Add 4 and 6 to get 10.
4X+10+4X=8
Add 4X to both sides.
8X+10=8
Combine 4X and 4X to get 8X.
8X=8-10
Subtract 10 from both sides.
8X=-2
Subtract 10 from 8 to get -2.
X=\frac{-2}{8}
Divide both sides by 8.
X=-\frac{1}{4}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-2}{8} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.
