Alright, in this, there are 2 ways - 4w-1 and 4w+2 are either both positive or negative. Starting with positive, we have 8w-2=12w+6 and by subtracting 8w and 6 from both sides we have -8=4w and w=-2. Next, we have negatives, so 2(-1)(4w-1)=3(-1)(4w+2). We can just divide -1 by both sides and we have the same equation as if it were positive, so there's only one solution, which is -2
