2x+3=3x+\left(x+3\right)\times 2\times 4
Combine x and x to get 2x.
2x+3=3x+\left(x+3\right)\times 8
Multiply 2 and 4 to get 8.
2x+3=3x+8x+24
Use the distributive property to multiply x+3 by 8.
2x+3=11x+24
Combine 3x and 8x to get 11x.
2x+3-11x=24
Subtract 11x from both sides.
-9x+3=24
Combine 2x and -11x to get -9x.
-9x=24-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
-9x=21
Subtract 3 from 24 to get 21.
x=\frac{21}{-9}
Divide both sides by -9.
x=-\frac{7}{3}
Reduce the fraction \frac{21}{-9} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
