Answer:

7/12 - ? + 3/4 = 2/3

7/12 + 3/4 = ? + 2/3

7/12 + 3/4 - 2/3 = ?

? = 7/12 + 3/4 - 2/3

? = 7/12 + 9/12 - 8/12

? = 8/12 = 4/6 = 2/3

Answer:

x = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

7/12 - x + 3/4 = 2/3

The common denominator is 12

3/4 *3/3 = 9/12

2/3 *4/4 = 8/12

7/12 - x + 9/12 = 8/12

Combine like terms

16/12 -x = 8/12

Subtract 16/12 from each side

12/16 -16/12 -x = 8/12-16/12

-x = -8/12

Multiply by -1

-1*(-x) = -1*(-8/12)

x = 8/12

Divide the top and bottom by 4

x = 2/3
