Ok.
Convert 3/4 to 6/8.

(9)/(8) - (6)/(8) = (3)/(8)
There is your answer. 3/8.

(3)/(4) is added to x, and the result is
(9)/(8)

To find x, you have to subtract the result by the fraction you added with x.


(9)/(8) - (3)/(4)

The denominators aren't the same. The LCM of 4 and 8 is 8, so change the fractions so that they both have a denominator of 8.


(9 * 1)/(8 * 1) = (9)/(8)


(3 * 2)/( 4 * 2) = (6)/(8)

Your new equation is:


(9)/(8) - (6)/(8)

Subtract:


(9)/(8) - (6)/(8) = (3)/(8)

ANSWER:
(3)/(8)
