Hey there :)

$\frac{ \frac{1}{2}+ \frac{5}{3} -1 }{ \frac{3}{4} }$
↓ Is the same as
$\frac{1}{2} + \frac{5}{3} -1$ ÷ $\frac{3}{4}$

Since it is a division by fraction, we can multiply by what is called the reciprocal
( The attached picture might help you )
( $\frac{1}{2} + \frac{5}{3} - 1$ ) × $\frac{4}{3}$
↓ For this part, we need the common denominator, which is 6
$\frac{1(3)}{2(3)}+ \frac{5(2)}{32)} \frac{1(6)}{1(6)}$ × $\frac{4}{3}$

$\frac{3}{6}+ \frac{10}{6} - \frac{6}{6}$ × $\frac{4}{3}$
$\frac{7}{6}$ × $\frac{4}{3}$
$\frac{14}{9} = 1\frac{5}{9}$
