Answer

$x=\left\{ -\dfrac{1}{3}, 0, 3 \right\}$

Work Step by Step

Equating each factor to zero (or the Zero-Product Principle), then the solutions to the given equation, $ 2x(3x+1)(x-3)=0 ,$ is \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} 2x=0 \\\\ x=\dfrac{0}{2} \\\\ x=0 ,\\\\\text{OR}\\\\ 3x+1=0 \\\\ 3x=-1 \\\\ x=-\dfrac{1}{3} ,\\\\\text{OR}\\\\ x-3=0 \\\\ x=3 .\end{array} Hence, $ x=\left\{ -\dfrac{1}{3}, 0, 3 \right\} .$
