To solve the equation 1/3x - 4 = -12, we need to isolate x.
First, we can add 4 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the -4 on the left side:
1/3x = -12 + 4
1/3x = -8

To eliminate the 1/3 coefficient, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3:
3 * (1/3x) = 3 * (-8)
x = -24

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -24.

The correct answer is D) -24.
