1 step way:

x + 3/4 = 3 + 3/4

  • Subtract 3/4 from both sides.

x = 3

2+ step way:

x + 3/4 = 3 + 3/4

  • Combine like terms.

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

  • Multiply 3 by 4/4 to have common denominators.

x + 3/4 = 12/4 + 3/4

  • Add.

x + 3/4 = 15/4

  • Subtract 3/4 from both sides.

x = 12/4 = 3
