Answer:

x = 4

Explanation:

3/4 times x = 3/4x

3/4 times 8 = 6

9 - 6 = 3

3 / (3/4) = 4

I hope this helps :)

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Multiply 4/3 to both sides to cancel out the 3/4 on the left.

Next, subtract 8 from both sides to cancel out the 8 on the left.

This should result in the equation x = 4!
