Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, multiply 8 to both sides:

(x/8)8 = (3/4)8

x = (3 * 8)/4

First, divide 8 with 4:

x = 3 * (8/4) = 3 * 2

Finally, simplify by multiplying:

x = 3 * 2

x = 6

x = 6 is your answer.
