Answer:

4(x - 4) = 4x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x - A) = 4x - 16

4x - 4A = 4x - 16

Equating Constant terms (terms without x): -4A = -16

                                                                     A = 4

Therefore , 4(x - 4) = 4x - 16

The answer is 4.

In order to find the answer, divide 4 from the each number on the right side. You pull the 4 out from 4x, and 4 from 16 to arrive at 4(x - 4).
