Answer:

x = 8

Explanation:

3+x/8=4

We move all terms to the left:

3+x/8-(4)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x/8-1=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

x-1*8=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x-8=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

x=8
