Answer:

1) 7(x/8) + 3/4 = -6

Explanation:

The term (7/8)x can be written as 7(x/8).

_____

The associative and commutative properties of multiplication let you put the factors (7)(1/8)(x) in any order or grouping you like.

Here, instead of (7·1/8)·x, the question is offering the rewrite 7(1/8·x), a straightforward application of the associative property.
