\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}


  • \tt \: \frac { x - 3 } { 4 } = \frac { r } { 4 } \\


\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

  • We'll have 2 solutions because this question is in 2 variables (x & r) & we need to solve for both of them.

First, let's solve for 'r'.


\tt\frac { x - 3 } { 4 } = \frac { r } { 4 } \\

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.


\tt \: x-3=r

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left-hand side.


\boxed{\boxed{ \bf \: r=x-3 }}

Now, let's solve for 'x'.


\tt \: \frac { x - 3 } { 4 } = \frac { r } { 4 } \\

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.


\tt \: x-3=r

Add 3 to both sides.


\boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: x=r+3 }}

\\ \rm\longmapsto (x-3)/(4)=(x)/(2)


\\ \rm\longmapsto 2(x-3)=4x


\\ \rm\longmapsto x-3=(4x)/(2)


\\ \rm\longmapsto x-3=2x


\\ \rm\longmapsto x-2x=3


\\ \rm\longmapsto -x=3


\\ \sf\longmapsto x=-3
