The given expression is 16x-16=4.
We first need to isolate the x term.
With x term we have 16 subtracted.Opposite of subtraction is addition.Adding 16 both sides .
16x-16+16=4+16
16x =20
With x term we have 16 multiplied,Opposite of multiplication is division so we divide both sides by 16.
x= [tex]\frac{20}{16}.[/tex]
Reducing it to lowest form:
x=[tex]\frac{5}{4}.[/tex]
