To find the roots of the equation \(6x^2 + 3x = 0\), we can factor the equation.

First, we can factor out the common term \(3x\):

\[
3x(2x + 1) = 0
\]

Now, we can set each factor equal to zero:

1. \(3x = 0\)
2. \(2x + 1 = 0\)

From \(3x = 0\), we find:

\[
x = 0
\]

From \(2x + 1 = 0\), we can solve for \(x\):

\[
2x = -1 \\
x = -\frac{1}{2}
\]

Therefore, the roots of the equation \(6x^2 + 3x = 0\) are:

\[
x = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad x = -\frac{1}{2}
\]
