Question
$$\frac{3}{4}+\frac{3}{4} = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{3}{4}+\frac{3}{4} &= 0&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 4 }. \\[1 em]4\cdot\frac{3}{4}+4\cdot\frac{3}{4} &= 4\cdot0&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]3+3 &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]6 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ 6 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
