The solution

You have entered [src]
x - 7      
----- = 3/4
x + 9      
$$\frac{x - 7}{x + 9} = \frac{3}{4}$$
Detail solution
Given the equation:
$$\frac{x - 7}{x + 9} = \frac{3}{4}$$
Multiply the equation sides by the denominator 9 + x
we get:
$$x - 7 = \frac{3 x}{4} + \frac{27}{4}$$
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$x = \frac{3 x}{4} + \frac{55}{4}$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\frac{x}{4} = \frac{55}{4}$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 1/4
x = 55/4 / (1/4)

We get the answer: x = 55
