3/4x=12

Multiply each side by 4/3.

3/4*4/3x=12(4/3)

Cross out 3 and 3, divide by 3 and becomes 1.

Cross out 4 and 4, divide by 4 and becomes 1.

1*1*x=x

Cross out 12 and 3, divide by 3.

12/3=4

3/3=1

4*4=16

Answer: 16

\text{Hey there!}


\bf{Solve: (3)/(4)x=12}\\\\\bf{Multiply\ both\ \ of\ your\ sides\ by \ (4)/(3)}\\\\\bf{(4)/(3)*(3)/(4)x=(4)/(3)*12}\\\\\bf{Cancel\ out:(4)/(3) *(3)/(3)\ because\ it\ equals\ to\ one}\\\\\bf{Keep: (4)/(3)* 12\  because\ it\ helps\ us\ solve\ for\  the\  answer}\\\\\boxed{\boxed{\bf{Answer: x=16}}}\checkmark
