Hi,
1/4of X means 1/4*x=16
then 3/4 of x means 3/4*x=?
we can write 3(1/4)x
put 1/4*x=16
3(16)=48

You might find it easiest to do this:  1) find the value of x, and then 2) find 3/4 of x.

If 1/4 of x is 16, multiply both sides of this equation by 4, to clear out the fraction.  What do you get?  This is the value of x you wanted.  Now multiply this value of x by 3/4.  The result is your answer.
