How would I solve '-3(2x - 3) = 20 - 4x'

How would I solve -3(2x - 3) = 20 - 4x

(I only need to know how to solve 2-step equations.)

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Re: how do i solve this

how would i solve, -3(2x-3)=20-4x

Start by multiplying this out:
-3(2x - 3)
= - 6x + 9 (each term inside the brackets is multiplied by -3)
Now you have:
-6x + 9 = 20 - 4x
Solve that for x: if you can't do that, you need to see your teacher.
