-16+x\times 6=4x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
-16+x\times 6-4x=0
Subtract 4x from both sides.
-16+2x=0
Combine x\times 6 and -4x to get 2x.
2x=16
Add 16 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\frac{16}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=8
Divide 16 by 2 to get 8.
