EXPLANATION :

From the problem, we have the equation :


(1)/(4)x+3=4

Solving for the value of x :


\begin{gathered} \text{ Subtract 3 from both sides :} \\ (1)/(4)x+3-3=4-3 \\ \\ (1)/(4)x=1 \\ \\ \text{ Multiply both sides by 4 :} \\ \\ 4((1)/(4)x)=4(1) \\ \\ x=4 \end{gathered}

ANSWER :

The answer is x = 4
