1/4x+8=3/8x+6 what is the answer or work to it I'm not that great at fractions.

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

1/4x+8=3/8x+6

Move + 8 to the other side. Sign changes from + 8 to - 8.

1/4x+8-8=3/8x+6-8

1/4x=3/8x-2

Move 3/8x to the other side.

1/4x-3/8x=3/8x-3/8x-2

1/4x-3/8x=-2

Find the common denominator for 1/4x which is 8.

Multiply by 2 for 1/4x. 1 (2) = 2/4, 4x (2) = 8x

2/8x-3/8x=-2

-1/8x=-2

Multiply both sides by - 8/1 to get + x

-1/8x (-8/1) = -2 (-8/1)

Answer: 16
