Answer:

  5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 is less than 5/6 by ...

  5/6 -3/4 = 10/12 -9/12 = 1/12

The number that is greater than 3/4 by 1/2 is ...

  3/4 +1/12 = 9/12 +1/12 = 10/12 = 5/6

5/6 is greater than 3/4 by the same amount that 3/4 is less than 5/6.

If A < B by some amount, then B > A by that same amount.

If B -A = q, then A +q = B.
