To solve the equation

\[
-4.8 = -\frac{x}{0.3} + 3.2,
\]

we will isolate \(x\).

1. First, subtract \(3.2\) from both sides:

\[
-4.8 - 3.2 = -\frac{x}{0.3}.
\]

\[
-8.0 = -\frac{x}{0.3}.
\]

2. To eliminate the negative sign, we can multiply both sides by \(-1\):

\[
8.0 = \frac{x}{0.3}.
\]

3. Next, multiply both sides by \(0.3\) to solve for \(x\):

\[
x = 8.0 \times 0.3.
\]

4. Calculate \(8.0 \times 0.3\):

\[
x = 2.4.
\]

So, the solution is

\[
\boxed{2.4}.
\]
