Answer:

3rd Option - 3(x-4) = 6x

Explanation:

To remove the fractions we escalate them up to the other side. So to remove the x under 3 we do the following :


(3)/(x) = (6)/(x-4) ----->
{3}= (6x)/(x-4) (As you can see the x now goes to the numerator of the right side)

Now to remove x-4 under 6x we do the following :


{3}= (6x)/(x-4) ------>
3(x-4)= {6x

Therefore giving our answer as the 3rd option.

Hope this helped and have a good day
