D. x = 3 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 7/8 = 4

The first step is to subtract 7/8 from each side

x + 7/8 - 7/8 = 4 - 7/8

x = 4 - 7/8

We need to borrow from the 4. It become 3 8/8

x = 3 8/8 - 7/8

x = 3 1/8

Solve the equation.x + 7/8 = 4A. x = 4 7/8B. x = - 3 1/8C. x = - 4 7/8D. x = 3 1/8

Solve the equation.

x + 7/8 = 4

A. x = 4 7/8

B. x = - 3 1/8

C. x = - 4 7/8

D. x = 3 1/8
