To solve the equation \( 3(x + 2) - 6 = 3x \), let's first simplify it step by step.

1. Distribute the \( 3 \) on the left side:

\[
3(x + 2) = 3x + 6
\]

So, the equation becomes:

\[
3x + 6 - 6 = 3x
\]

2. Simplify the left side:

\[
3x + 6 - 6 = 3x \implies 3x = 3x
\]

Since both sides of the equation are the same, this means the equation is true for all values of \( x \).

Thus, the equation has **infinite solutions**.

### Conclusion:
The correct response is:
"The equation has infinite solutions."
