Let’s check out your problem:

x-(7)/(4)=(5)/(6)

x74=56 x-\frac{7}{4}=\frac{5}{6}

Full solution

Q. x74=56 x-\frac{7}{4}=\frac{5}{6}
  1. Isolate xx by adding 74\frac{7}{4}: Add 74\frac{7}{4} to both sides to isolate xx.\newlinex74+74=56+74x - \frac{7}{4} + \frac{7}{4} = \frac{5}{6} + \frac{7}{4}
  2. Find common denominator: Find a common denominator for 56\frac{5}{6} and 74\frac{7}{4}, which is 1212. \newlinex=(56)(22)+(74)(33)x = \left(\frac{5}{6}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{2}{2}\right) + \left(\frac{7}{4}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{3}{3}\right)
  3. Multiply to get common denominators: Multiply to get common denominators. x=1012+2112x = \frac{10}{12} + \frac{21}{12}
  4. Add the fractions: Add the fractions. x=10+2112x = \frac{10 + 21}{12}
  5. Simplify the sum: Simplify the sum. x=3112x = \frac{31}{12}
