Answer:  x = 54/4 = 27/2 ; or, 13 1/2 ; or, 13.5  .
______________________________________________
12(x - 6) = 2(x - 9) ;

12x - 72 = 2x - 18 ;  

Add "72" to each side; and subtract "2x" from each side;

12x - 72 + 72 - 3x = 2x - 18 + 72 - 2x ;

4x = 54 ;
 
Divide each side by "4" ;
___________________________________
x = 54/4 = 27/2 ; or, 13 1/2 ; or, 13.5 .
