-\frac{1}{3}x+4-x=0
Subtract x from both sides.
-\frac{4}{3}x+4=0
Combine -\frac{1}{3}x and -x to get -\frac{4}{3}x.
-\frac{4}{3}x=-4
Subtract 4 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=-4\left(-\frac{3}{4}\right)
Multiply both sides by -\frac{3}{4}, the reciprocal of -\frac{4}{3}.
x=3
Multiply -4 times -\frac{3}{4}.
