Write

\mathrm{\frac{2 \sin x-\sin 2 x}{x-\sin x} =\frac{2 \sin x-2 \sin x \cos x}{x-\sin x}}
                                 \mathrm{=2\left(\frac{\sin x}{x}\right)\left(\frac{1-\cos x}{x^{2}}\right)\left(\frac{x^{3}}{x-\sin x}\right)}

Using standard limits
\mathrm{\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin x}{x} =1}
\mathrm{\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{1-\cos x}{x^{2}} =\frac{1}{2} }
\mathrm{\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{x-\sin x}{x^{3}} =\frac{1}{6} }

it follows that
\mathrm{\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{2 \sin x-\sin 2 x}{x-\sin x} =2 \lim _{x \rightarrow 0}\left(\frac{\sin x}{x}\right) \lim _{x \rightarrow 0}\left(\frac{1-\cos x}{x^{2}}\right) \lim _{x \rightarrow 0}\left(\frac{x^{3}}{x-\sin x}\right) }
                                          \mathrm{=2(1)\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\left(\frac{6}{1}\right) }
                                          \mathrm{=6 }.
