12/x   +   3/4    =   3/2     ( subtract 3/4 on both sides)

 12/x                  =   3/2  -  3/4   (combine both fractions)

12/x                   =  (6 - 3) / 4    

12/x                   = 3/4                (cross multiply)

48                     = 3x                  (divide both sides with 3)

16                     = x

substitute value of x in the equation to check

 12/16 + 3/4 = 3/2

.75 + .75       = 1.5

1.5                 = 1.5
