Answer:

Yes, you can use the division property of equality in this equation.

Explanation:

This is because we have a variable (x) that is being MULTIPLIED (by 4). The opposite of multiplication is division. Since this is an equation that needs properties of equality to solve the variable, division would be a property of equality being used.
