Multiply every value on LHS and RHS by 8. Then isolate x.
LHS And RHS ?
LHS = left hand side of equation. RHS = right hand side of equation.
add 1 to each side then do multiply everything by 8 so you should have 3x=5-8 I think
No, after multiplying by 8, it would be: 3x = 5 + 8

ok i see i forgot the -1 times 8 = -8 then to balance +8
I Got Something Diff. Could You Show Me How You Got It ?
So here it is: multiply everything by 8 so it cancels out the 8's under 3x and 5 and turns 1 to 8 so its 3x-8=5 now add 8 to each side now its 3x=13 divide by 3 or leave as fraction: 13/3
when i divided 13 into 3 i got 4.3
then use that as the answer i didnt know if it would be a good decimal
