\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{2}{3}-\frac{5}{6}x=0
Subtract \frac{5}{6}x from both sides.
-\frac{1}{12}x+\frac{2}{3}=0
Combine \frac{3}{4}x and -\frac{5}{6}x to get -\frac{1}{12}x.
-\frac{1}{12}x=-\frac{2}{3}
Subtract \frac{2}{3} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=-\frac{2}{3}\left(-12\right)
Multiply both sides by -12, the reciprocal of -\frac{1}{12}.
x=\frac{-2\left(-12\right)}{3}
Express -\frac{2}{3}\left(-12\right) as a single fraction.
x=\frac{24}{3}
Multiply -2 and -12 to get 24.
x=8
Divide 24 by 3 to get 8.
