Answer:

should be
38 = 9x

Explanation

multiply both sides with the least common denominator of the denominator of the fraction (the number below the line).
of the numbers 4 and 6, the least common denominator is 12.
so multiply both sides of the equation by 12.
you will have
12 * (4 - 3/4 x) = 12 * 5/6
simplify and you will get
48 - 9 x = 10

and you can even more simplify it to 9x = 38 or 38 = 9x
