if you have
2-6%2Fx=4+, than
2x%2Fx-6%2Fx=4+
%282x-6%29%2Fx=4+
%282x-6%29=4%2Ax+
2x-6=4x+
-6=4x-2x+
-6=2x+
-6%2F2=x+
-3=x+

If you meant %282-6%29%2Fx=4 , which should be written as (2-6)/x=4,
2-6=-4 , so %282-6%29%2Fx=4--->%28-4%29%2Fx=4--->%28%28-4%29%2Fx%29x=4%28x%29--->-4=4%28x%29--->%28-4%29%2F4=4%28x%29%2F4--->-1=x
