Question 4631: z+7/6 = z-3/7

There is NO SOLUTION to this. There is NO WAY you can start with a number z and add th fraction 7/6 and end up with the same number as if you subtracted a different number from it.

If you look at the equation, begin by subtracting z from both sides.
z + 7/6 = z - 3/7
z - z + 7/6 = z - z - 3/7
7/6 = -3/7 which is NOT possible.
This is a false statement, and it is ALWAYS a false statement.
No matter what z is, 7/6 will never (in this lifetime!) equal to -3/7!!

NO Solution.
