  13     
----- = 2
x - 4    
$$\frac{13}{x - 4} = 2$$
Detail solution
Given the equation:
$$\frac{13}{x - 4} = 2$$
Use proportions rule:
From a1/b1 = a2/b2 should a1*b2 = a2*b1,
In this case
a1 = 13

b1 = -4 + x

a2 = 1

b2 = 1/2

so we get the equation
$$\frac{13}{2} = x - 4$$
$$\frac{13}{2} = x - 4$$
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$0 = x - \frac{21}{2}$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$- x = - \frac{21}{2}$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -1
x = -21/2 / (-1)

We get the answer: x = 21/2
