\left(4x+12\right)\times 90=\frac{3}{4}\times 4x\times 129
Variable x cannot be equal to any of the values -3,0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 4x\left(x+3\right), the least common multiple of x,4,3+x.
360x+1080=\frac{3}{4}\times 4x\times 129
Use the distributive property to multiply 4x+12 by 90.
360x+1080=3x\times 129
Multiply \frac{3}{4} and 4 to get 3.
360x+1080=387x
Multiply 3 and 129 to get 387.
360x+1080-387x=0
Subtract 387x from both sides.
-27x+1080=0
Combine 360x and -387x to get -27x.
-27x=-1080
Subtract 1080 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-1080}{-27}
Divide both sides by -27.
x=40
Divide -1080 by -27 to get 40.
