y\left(x-3\right)=4
Variable x cannot be equal to 3 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x-3.
yx-3y=4
Use the distributive property to multiply y by x-3.
yx=4+3y
Add 3y to both sides.
yx=3y+4
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{yx}{y}=\frac{3y+4}{y}
Divide both sides by y.
x=\frac{3y+4}{y}
Dividing by y undoes the multiplication by y.
x=3+\frac{4}{y}
Divide 4+3y by y.
x=3+\frac{4}{y}\text{, }x\neq 3
Variable x cannot be equal to 3.
