Divide both sides by 4:
x = -56/4
x = -14
To double-check your answer, plug-in -14 for x:
4(-14) =? 56
56 =? 56 <-- check!
So the answer is x = -14

4x = -56
Divide by 4, to get x by itself.
4x/4 = -56/4
x = -14
4x = -56
4(-14) = -56
56 = 56 ok

What you do is divide -56 by 4, leaving x by itself.
It's -14.
