1. **State the problem:** Solve the logarithmic equation $$3 \log_2 - 2 \log_2 \frac{x}{3} = 2 \log_2 3 + 1$$.
2. **Rewrite the equation clearly:** Note that $$\log_2$$ without an argument is incomplete, so we assume it means $$\log_2 2$$ which equals 1. The equation becomes:
$$3 \cdot 1 - 2 \log_2 \frac{x}{3} = 2 \log_2 3 + 1$$
3. **Simplify the left side:**
$$3 - 2 \log_2 \frac{x}{3} = 2 \log_2 3 + 1$$
4. **Isolate the logarithmic term:**
$$-2 \log_2 \frac{x}{3} = 2 \log_2 3 + 1 - 3$$
$$-2 \log_2 \frac{x}{3} = 2 \log_2 3 - 2$$
5. **Divide both sides by -2:**
$$\log_2 \frac{x}{3} = \cancel{-\frac{2}{2}} \log_2 3 + \cancel{-\frac{2}{2}}$$
$$\log_2 \frac{x}{3} = - \log_2 3 + 1$$
6. **Rewrite 1 as $$\log_2 2$$:**
$$\log_2 \frac{x}{3} = - \log_2 3 + \log_2 2$$
7. **Use logarithm properties:**
$$\log_2 \frac{x}{3} = \log_2 \frac{2}{3}$$
8. **Since logarithms are equal, their arguments are equal:**
$$\frac{x}{3} = \frac{2}{3}$$
9. **Solve for $$x$$:**
$$x = 2$$
**Final answer:** $$x = 2$$
