:
Least common denominator is 12, multiply equation by 12 and you have:
4(2x) + 6(x) - 12(3) = 3(3x) + 12(2)
:
8x + 6x - 36 = 9x + 24; multiply what's inside the brackets
:
8x + 6x - 9x = 24 + 36; x's on the left, numbers on the right
:
5x = 60
:
x = 60/5
:
x = 12
:
:
you can check the solution, substitute 12 for x in the original equation
