Correct Answer: –1.5
Solution : Given: $\frac{1}{6}$ of $x$ – $\frac{7}{2}$ of $\frac{3}{7}$ equals to $(-\frac{7}{4})$. ⇒ $\frac{1}{6} × x-\frac{7}{2} ×\frac{3}{7}= -\frac{7}{4}$ ⇒ $\frac{x}{6} -\frac{3}{2}= -\frac{7}{4}$ ⇒ $\frac{x}{6} =-\frac{7}{4}+\frac{3}{2}$ ⇒ $\frac{x}{6} =-\frac{1}{4}$ ⇒ $x =-\frac{3}{2}$ ⇒ $x=-1.5$ Hence, the correct answer is –1.5.
