Step 1: Subtract 3/8 from both sides
1/x+3/8-3/8=1/4-3/8
1/x=1/4-3/8
Step 2: Multiply 1/4 by 1/2
1/x = (1/4) (1/2) - 3/8
1/x=2/8-3/8
Step 3: Subtract
1/x=-1/8
Step 5: Multiply by x on both sides
1/x (x) = - 1/8 (x)
1=-1/8x
Step 6: Divide - 1/8
1 / (-1/8) = - 1/8x / (1/8)
*You can times flip
1 (-8) = - 1/8x (8)
-8=-x
*Divide by - 1
-8/-1=-x/-1
8=x
