Answer:

x =
(39)/(8)

Explanation:

Given

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

Multiply through by 12 ( the LCM of 3 and 4 ) to clear the fractions

48 - 8x = 9 ( subtract 48 from both sides )

- 8x = - 39 ( divide both sides by - 8 )

x =
(39)/(8)

Answer:

2/3 x 3/4 = 1/2

Explanation:

4 - 2/3 you have to subtract 4 and 2 which would be 2 so that means its 2/3

then you keep 3/4 the same so it would be

2/3 x 3/4

2/3×3/4

=

2 × 3/3 × 4

=

6/12

=

6 ÷ 6/12 ÷ 6

=

1/2
