1. 3/4
2. im not sure if it means after taking away 3/4, but if it is, its 10/4

x=10/4 and -30/4 i believe, im not too good with fractions, sorry if its wrong :((
Take the constants to the right side of the equation
|5-x|=13/4-3/4
|5-x|=5/2

When you remove the absolute value on the left side, you have to put a plus or minus sign, +- on the right side.

5-x=+-5/2

Solve for the positive equation:
5-x=5/2
-x=-5/2
x=5/2

Solve for the negative equation:
5-x=-5/2
-x=-15/2
x=15/2

Solution: x= 5/2, 15/2
