3x+4-\frac{2}{3}x\times 2=4
Use the distributive property to multiply 2-\frac{2}{3}x by 2.
3x+4+\frac{-2\times 2}{3}x=4
Express -\frac{2}{3}\times 2 as a single fraction.
3x+4+\frac{-4}{3}x=4
Multiply -2 and 2 to get -4.
3x+4-\frac{4}{3}x=4
Fraction \frac{-4}{3} can be rewritten as -\frac{4}{3} by extracting the negative sign.
\frac{5}{3}x+4=4
Combine 3x and -\frac{4}{3}x to get \frac{5}{3}x.
\frac{5}{3}x=4-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
\frac{5}{3}x=0
Subtract 4 from 4 to get 0.
x=0
Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since \frac{5}{3} is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.
