    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
