-4 - 2x = -12

Add 4 to both sides, because whatever you do on the right you have to do it on the left side

-2x = -8

Divide by -2 to isolate the x to get the x value

x = 4

1/3
1×2=2
3×2=6
therefore 1/3 being equivalent to 2/6

now you would be able to add the numerators, so 2+3=5
therefore being 5/6 of the paper is devoted to news and pictures
