$\frac{\mathrm{T}_{1}}{\mathrm{T}_{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{M}_{1}}{\mathrm{M}_{2}}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{T}}{\mathrm{T}+1}=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{M}}{\mathrm{M}+1}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{3}{4}=\sqrt{\frac{M}{M+1}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{9}{16}=\frac{\mathrm{M}}{\mathrm{M}+1} \Rightarrow 9 \mathrm{M}+9=16 \mathrm{M}$
$\Rightarrow 7 \mathrm{M}=9 \Rightarrow \mathrm{M}=\frac{9}{7} \mathrm{Kg}$
