$$ x = \dfrac{5}{3} $$
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} x+\frac{4}{3} &= 3&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 3 }. \\[1 em]3x+3\cdot\frac{4}{3} &= 3\cdot3&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]3x+4 &= 9&& \text{ move 4 to the right } \\[1 em]3x &= 9-4&& \\[1 em]3x &= 5&& \text{ divide both sides by $ 3 $ } \\[1 em]x &= \frac{5}{3}&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
