Question

1) Solve for x.
x/8 + 3 = 5​

Answer 1

x=16

Explanation:

`(x)/(8) + 3 = 5`

Take the 3 to the other side of the equation

`(x)/(8) = 5 - 3`

`(x)/(8) = 2`

Cross multiply

`x = 8 * 2`

`x = 16`

Answer 2

X=16

Explanation:

x/8+3=5

-3 on both sides

x/8=2

multiply by 8 on both sides

x=16
