    Solve for x:

    (3 x) / 4 = - 12

    Multiply both sides of (3 x) / 4 = - 12 by 4/3:

    (4*3 x) / (3*4) = - 12*4/3

    4/3*3/4 = (4*3) / (3*4):

    (4*3) / (3*4) x = - 12*4/3

    4/3 (-12) = (4 (-12)) / 3:

    (4*3 x) / (3*4) = (-12*4) / 3

    (4*3 x) / (3*4) = (3*4) / (3*4) * x = x:

    x = (-12*4) / 3

    (-12) / 3 = (3 (-4)) / 3 = - 4:

    x = 4*-4

    4 (-4) = - 16:

    Answer: x = - 16
