x\left(3-4x\right)
Factor out x.
-4x^{2}+3x=0
Quadratic polynomial can be factored using the transformation ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left(x-x_{1}\right)\left(x-x_{2}\right), where x_{1} and x_{2} are the solutions of the quadratic equation ax^{2}+bx+c=0.
x=\frac{-3±\sqrt{3^{2}}}{2\left(-4\right)}
All equations of the form ax^{2}+bx+c=0 can be solved using the quadratic formula: \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}. The quadratic formula gives two solutions, one when ± is addition and one when it is subtraction.
x=\frac{-3±3}{2\left(-4\right)}
Take the square root of 3^{2}.
x=\frac{-3±3}{-8}
Multiply 2 times -4.
x=\frac{0}{-8}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{-3±3}{-8} when ± is plus. Add -3 to 3.
x=0
Divide 0 by -8.
x=-\frac{6}{-8}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{-3±3}{-8} when ± is minus. Subtract 3 from -3.
x=\frac{3}{4}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-6}{-8} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.
-4x^{2}+3x=-4x\left(x-\frac{3}{4}\right)
Factor the original expression using ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left(x-x_{1}\right)\left(x-x_{2}\right). Substitute 0 for x_{1} and \frac{3}{4} for x_{2}.
-4x^{2}+3x=-4x\times \frac{-4x+3}{-4}
Subtract \frac{3}{4} from x by finding a common denominator and subtracting the numerators. Then reduce the fraction to lowest terms if possible.
-4x^{2}+3x=x\left(-4x+3\right)
Cancel out 4, the greatest common factor in -4 and -4.
