The answer is 12.
Steps
If that number is x
(3+x)/(8+x)=3/4
"Cross multply"
4(3+x)=3(8+x)
12+4x=24+3x
x=12
To check: add 12 to 3 and 8. 3+12=15 and 8+12=20. 15/20=3/4

The difference between the mixed numbers is equal to 5/6.

<h3>How to perform the subtraction between the two mixed numbers?</h3>

A mixed number is a number that is written as a whole number plus an improper fraction, here we want to compute:

(2 + 1/2) - (1 + 2/3)

We can group the whole numbers and the fractions, so we get:

(2 - 1) + (1/2 - 2/3)

Now we can simplify this so we get:

(2 - 1) + (1/2 - 2/3)

= 1 + (3/6 - 4/6) = 1 - 1/6 = 6/6 - 1/6 = 5/6

We conclude that the difference between the mixed numbers is equal to 5/6.
