      X-1/2 + 2X+3/4 = 1


      If the questn is as above... then lets go


      X-1/2 + 2X+3/4 = 1


      we look for an LCM which in this case will be (4), so we have


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


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


      (4X + 1) / 4 = 1


      from here, we multiply through by (4)....which will give us...


      4X + 1 = 4


      4X = 4 - 1


      4X = 3


      dividing through by (4)


      4x / 4 = 3 / 4


      x = 3/4 OR 0.75
