We have..

(3)/(4)t=(1)/(4)


\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}4 \ \textgreater \ 4\cdot (3)/(4)t=(1\cdot \:4)/(4) \ \textgreater \ Next\;simplify


4\cdot (3)/(4)t \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}: \:a\cdot (b)/(c)=(a\:\cdot \:b)/(c) \ \textgreater \ (3\cdot \:4)/(4)t


\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:4 \ \textgreater \ t\cdot \:3


(1\cdot \:4)/(4) \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:1\cdot \:4=4 \ \textgreater \ (4)/(4)


\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:(a)/(a)=1


3t=1 \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}3 \ \textgreater \ (3t)/(3)=(1)/(3) \ \textgreater \ t=(1)/(3)

Hope this helps!
