X/5 - 8=4 find the value of x

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you meant this: (x/5) - 8=4

In which case you would add 8 to both sides to get rid of the 8 on the left (your goal is to get x by itself so you want to move the numbers on the x side to the other side of the equal sign)

(x/5) = 12

Then you would multiply 5 on both sides to get rid of the fraction with the 5 on the bottom on the left side.

x=60

There's your answer.
