Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{1}{3} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3x+1.
4=300x+100
Use the distributive property to multiply 100 by 3x+1.
300x+100=4

Subtract 100 from 4 to get -96.
x=\frac{-96}{300}
Divide both sides by 300.
x=-\frac{8}{25}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-96}{300} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 12.
