$color(green)(85/12 color(black)(" or ")7 1/12)$

$3/4(4/5x-2)=11/4$

Multiplying both sides by $4$
$rarr 3(4/5x-2)=11$

Expanding the right side
$rarr (12x-30)/5=11$

Multiplying both sides bye $5$
rarr 12x-30 =55#

Adding $30$ to both sides
rarr 12x =85#

Dividing both sides by $12$
$rarr x= 85/12=7 1/12$
