4x%2F3+=+3y%2F4+%2B1…………..multiply both sides by 12 or 3%2A4
%284x%2F3%29%28+3%2A4%29+=+%283y%2F4%29%28+3%2A4%29+%2B1…………..simplify
…………..
%284x%29%28+4%29+=+%283y%29%28+3%29+%2B1…………..
16x+=+9y+%2B1………….. move 1 to the left
9y+=+16x-1…………..
16x-1+=+9y…………..
9y+=+16x+-1………….. divide both sides by 9
y+=+%2816%2F9%29x+-1%2F9…………..
