Answer:
x = 11/36

Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 - Write down the equation

x + 4/9 = 3/4

Step 2 - Subtract 4/9 from both sides of the equation

x + 4/9 = 3/4
x + 4/9 - 4/9 = 3/4 - 4/9
x = 11/36

Extra:
If you would like to check and make sure the value of x is correct, simply replace x with its value and solve.

x + 4/9 = 3/4
11/36 + 4/9 = 3/4
27/36 = 3/4
3/4 = 3/4 ✅

So, the value of x is in fact 11/36
