Answer:

x = 4a + 4g

Explanation:

When solving equations, pay attention to operations and their order.

In this equation we start off by moving the addition/subtraction, then the multiplication/division (opposite of PEMDAS)

Secondly, when a variable goes to the other side of an equation, its operation is reversed accordingly (addition goes to subtraction and multiplication goes to division)

So,

x/4 - g = a

x/4 = a + g

x = 4(a + g)

x = 4a + 4g
