1. Let's clarify the step where you multiply 6 on the left side of the equation. 2. Suppose the original expression was $6 \times \frac{2x}{3} = 4v$. 3. When multiplying 6 by $\frac{2x}{3}$, you multiply the numerator by 6 and keep the denominator: $$6 \times \frac{2x}{3} = \frac{6 \times 2x}{3} = \frac{12x}{3}$$ 4. Simplify $\frac{12x}{3}$ by dividing numerator and denominator by 3: $$\frac{12x}{3} = 4x$$ 5. So, after multiplying, the left side becomes $4x$, not $2 \times 4v$. 6. If you saw $2 \times 4v$, it might be a misunderstanding or a different step. 7. Please check the original equation carefully and let me know if you want me to explain that specific step further.
