3x=6x-6 the original equation
3x-6x=-6 by adding -6x to both sides of the equation.
-3x=-6 by collecting similar terms.
x=2 when dividing by -3 on both sides of the equation.
the value of x is 2.
 
Notice that you can check your answer by substituting(plug in) instead of x the value 2 and you will see that the left hand side of the equation will be 12 and the right hand side of the equation is also 12.
I hope that helps.
