Hello, please consider the following.

We will multiply the numerator and denominator by

$4+\sqrt{6x}$

to get rid of the root in the denominator.

First of all, we cannot divide by 0, right? So, we need to make sure that the denominator is different from 0.

$4-\sqrt{6x} =0\sqrt{6x}=4\\\\\text{Take the square}\\\\6x=4^2=16\\\\x=\dfrac{16}{6}=\dfrac{8}{3}$

We need to take any x real number different from 8/3 then and simplify the expression.

Let's do it!

$\begin{aligned}\dfrac{4}{4-\sqrt{6x}}&=\dfrac{4(4+\sqrt{6x})}{(4+\sqrt{6x})(4-\sqrt{6x})}\\\\&=\dfrac{4(4+\sqrt{6x})}{(4^2-\sqrt{6x}^2)}\\\\&=\dfrac{4(4+\sqrt{6x})}{(16-6x)}\\\\&=\dfrac{2(4+\sqrt{6x})}{(8-3x)}\\\\&\large \boxed{=\dfrac{8+2\sqrt{6x}}{8-3x}}\end{aligned}$
