Is there an easier way to solve equations with multiplication and division

Oh yeah, i didn't have enough room up there, how would you solve 3a= -1/4 ? thanks :)

-
If you divide both sides with 3 you will have: 3a/3= -1/4 *1/3

a = -1/12

-
If you multiply both sides of the equation by -4, you can get rid of the -1/4 on the right side.

-12a = 1

Divide both sides by -12 to get a alone

a = -1/12
