We would first rearrange

2/3*x-1/2-(x+7/6)=0

Reduce 7/6

(-2(x+5)/6= 0*6

Solve : -2 = 0


Subtract 5 from both sides
x = -5


Your answer: x = (-5)

2/3x - ½= x + 7/6 
+ 1/2        + 1/2

2/3x = x + (7/6 + 1/2)

2/3x = x + 5/3
2x/3

2x/3 = x + 5/3
*3           *3

2x = 3x + 5
-3x    -3x

-x = 5

x = -5

Your answer is -5


Hope I helped!
