\(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow {x \over 4} = x - {2 \over 3} }\) \(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow {x \over 4} = {3x - 2 \over 3} }\) \(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow 3x = 4(3x - 2) }\) \(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow 3x = 12x - 8 }\) \(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow -9x = -8}\) \(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow x = {8 \over 9} }\)
