The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable.
We have then:
x: unknown number.
From here, we write the following equation:
\(x + \frac{17}{4} = 5\)
Then, we clear the value of x.
We have then:
\(x = 5 - \frac{17}{4}\)
\(x = \frac{20}{4} - \frac{17}{4}\)
\(x = \frac{3}{4}\)
Answer:
You must add:
\(x = \frac{3}{4}\)
