Question

x/3-1/2=3/4
contains fractions

Answer 1

Answer:

x= 15/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting Equation

(x/3) - (1/2) = 3/4

Add 1/2 by both sides

(x/3) = 3/4 + 1/2

Find the common denominator (4)

(x/3) = 3/4 + 2/4

Add

(x/3) = 5/4

Multiply 3 by both sides to get x by itself

x = 15/4

Answer 2

Answer:

x=15/4 or 3 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify both sides

1/3x + -1/2=3/4

Add 1/2 to both sides

1/3x+-1/2+1/2=3/4+1/2

1/3x=5/4

multiply both sides by 3

3 *(1/3x)=3*(5/4)

x=15/4 or you can convert it to a mixed number
