#x=5#

Given, #24 = x+x+2x-3+2x-3#

Add all x terms and number terms at Right hand side

#24 = 6x-6#
Now keep the #x# term on one side and number terms on other side. remember, when you move a term to the other side it sign changes.

#24+6 = 6x#

or, #30 = 6x#

or #30/6 = x#

or, #cancel30^5/cancel6^1=x#

or #x=5#
