    16-4 (5-x) = 8

    Step #1 - 16-4 = 12

    Step #2 - 12 (5-x) (multiply everything in the parenthesis by 12)

    12 * 5 = 60 12 * - x = - 12x

    Step #3 - 60 + - 12x = 8

    +60 - 60 + - 12x = 8 - 60

    -12x = 52

    -12/-12 = 52/-12

    x = - 52/12

    Your answer is: x = - 52/12

    Have an amazing day!
