Answer: 86 86/91 or 7912/91

Work: So you multiply 3/4x by what is in the parenthesis like this: 3/4x*5/6-3/4x*4/23. and you get 5/8x-3/23x=43. And then you simplify to get 91/184x=43 then u multiply both sides by 184 to get rid of the fraction. and you get 91x=7912. then you divide both sides by 91 and you get x=7912/91 or 86 86/91
