xm-4m=12
Subtract 4m from both sides.
\left(x-4\right)m=12
Combine all terms containing m.
\frac{\left(x-4\right)m}{x-4}=\frac{12}{x-4}
Divide both sides by x-4.
m=\frac{12}{x-4}
Dividing by x-4 undoes the multiplication by x-4.
mx=4m+12
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{mx}{m}=\frac{4m+12}{m}
Divide both sides by m.
x=\frac{4m+12}{m}
Dividing by m undoes the multiplication by m.
x=4+\frac{12}{m}
Divide 12+4m by m.
