3/x =8

Solution

\frac{3}{x} = 8

x = \frac{3}{8}

Solution steps

\frac{3}{x} = 8

Multiply both sides by

x

3 = 8 x

Switch sides

8 x = 3

Divide both sides by

8

x = \frac{3}{8}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = \frac{3}{8}

\frac{64}{x} (1 + x + x^{2}) = 56

\frac{5}{2 t - t} = \frac{3 + 3}{2 t}

\frac{1}{x} + x = 3

\frac{10 x - 10}{x - 1} + 12 = x + 8

2 + \frac{7}{a - 7} = \frac{a}{a - 7}
