\left(1-\frac{2}{3}\right)\left(\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{7}{2}\right)=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Anything divided by one gives itself.
\left(\frac{3}{3}-\frac{2}{3}\right)\left(\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{7}{2}\right)=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.
\frac{3-2}{3}\left(\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{7}{2}\right)=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Since \frac{3}{3} and \frac{2}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{7}{2}\right)=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Subtract 2 from 3 to get 1.
\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{3}{4}x+\frac{1}{3}\left(-\frac{7}{2}\right)=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply \frac{1}{3} by \frac{3}{4}x-\frac{7}{2}.
\frac{1\times 3}{3\times 4}x+\frac{1}{3}\left(-\frac{7}{2}\right)=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Multiply \frac{1}{3} times \frac{3}{4} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{3}\left(-\frac{7}{2}\right)=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Cancel out 3 in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1\left(-7\right)}{3\times 2}=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Multiply \frac{1}{3} times -\frac{7}{2} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{-7}{6}=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{1\left(-7\right)}{3\times 2}.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Fraction \frac{-7}{6} can be rewritten as -\frac{7}{6} by extracting the negative sign.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{5}{6}-x-\left(\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{5}{1}\right)
Anything divided by one gives itself.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{5}{6}-x-\left(\frac{1}{3}x-5\right)
Anything divided by one gives itself.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{3}x-\left(-5\right)
To find the opposite of \frac{1}{3}x-5, find the opposite of each term.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{5}{6}-x-\frac{1}{3}x+5
The opposite of -5 is 5.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{4}{3}x+5
Combine -x and -\frac{1}{3}x to get -\frac{4}{3}x.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{4}{3}x+\frac{30}{6}
Convert 5 to fraction \frac{30}{6}.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{5+30}{6}-\frac{4}{3}x
Since \frac{5}{6} and \frac{30}{6} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{35}{6}-\frac{4}{3}x
Add 5 and 30 to get 35.
\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{7}{6}+\frac{4}{3}x=\frac{35}{6}
Add \frac{4}{3}x to both sides.
\frac{19}{12}x-\frac{7}{6}=\frac{35}{6}
Combine \frac{1}{4}x and \frac{4}{3}x to get \frac{19}{12}x.
\frac{19}{12}x=\frac{35}{6}+\frac{7}{6}
Add \frac{7}{6} to both sides.
\frac{19}{12}x=\frac{35+7}{6}
Since \frac{35}{6} and \frac{7}{6} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{19}{12}x=\frac{42}{6}
Add 35 and 7 to get 42.
\frac{19}{12}x=7
Divide 42 by 6 to get 7.
x=7\times \frac{12}{19}
Multiply both sides by \frac{12}{19}, the reciprocal of \frac{19}{12}.
x=\frac{7\times 12}{19}
Express 7\times \frac{12}{19} as a single fraction.
x=\frac{84}{19}
Multiply 7 and 12 to get 84.
