You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Multiply both sides of the equation by x. This is a quadratic equation. You may need to check late to be sure which or if both solutions will work in the original equation.

3x-%282520%2Fx%29=4
3x%2Ax-%282520%2Fx%29%2Ax=4%2Ax
3x%5E2-2520=4x
3x%5E2-4x-2520=0
You can finish this hopefully.
