4/7 - x = 6/35
You're trying to get x by itself, so you have to subtract 4/7 from both sides.
-x = 6/35 - 4/7
You need both of the fractions to the right of the equal sign to have the same denominator so that we could simplify them, so multiply 5/5 to -4/7.
-4 /7 × 5/5 = -20/35
So, our new equation is :
-x = 6/35 - 20/35
Simplify.
-x = -14/35
Divide both sides by -1.
x = 14/35
Divide by 7.
x = 2/5

1/4 of 8 is equal to 2
