Answer:

(-x)/(3) should be added to the given equation.

Explanation:

Let a is added to the given equation.

According to the given condition,

$(5x)/(6)-4+a=(x)/(2)-4\\\\a=(x)/(2)-4+4-(5x)/(6)\\\\a=(x)/(2)-(5x)/(6)\\\\a=(3x-5x)/(6)\\\\a=(-2x)/(6)\\\\a=(-x)/(3)$

So,
(-x)/(3) should be added to the given equation.
