    7 - x    
x + ----- = 4
      3      
$$x + \frac{7 - x}{3} = 4$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
x+(7-x)/3 = 4

Expand brackets in the left part
x+7/3-x/3 = 4

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
7/3 + 2*x/3 = 4

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$\frac{2 x}{3} = \frac{5}{3}$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 2/3
x = 5/3 / (2/3)

We get the answer: x = 5/2
