Answer:

x =
(2)/(3)

Explanation:

Given


(3x)/(2) -
(1)/(2) =
(1)/(3) +
(x)/(4)

Multiply through by 12 ( the LCM of 2, 3 and 4 ) to clear the fractions

18x - 6 = 4 + 3x ( subtract 3x from both sides )

15x - 6 = 4 ( add 6 to both sides )

15x = 10 ( divide both sides by 15 )

x =
(10)/(15) =
(2)/(3)
