a%28b-c%29=-4d

divide both sides by a:
%28a%28b-c%29%29%2Fa=%28-4d%29%2Fa

b+-+c+=%28-4d%29%2Fa

subtract b from both sides to isolate -c variable:
-+c+=%28%28-4d%29%2Fa%29+-+b

since you are solving for c, multiply by -1 to eliminate the negative:
-+c+=%28%28-4d%29%2Fa%29+-+b

c+=%284d%29%2Fa+%2B+b
