Here’s why:
⸻⸻⸻⸻
[tex]\boxed{\text{Simplifying the Equation Given...}}\\\\\frac{1}{4}(12x-16)=4 \\---------------\\\\\rightarrow \left \{ {{\frac{1}{4} * 12 = 3} \atop {\frac{1}{4}*-16 = -4}} \right.\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{3x - 4 = 4}\\\\\\\rightarrow\boxed{3x - 4 = 4\neq 3x - 16 = 4} \leftarrow\\\\\text{The 'simplified' equation is not distributed correctly.}[/tex]

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
