To solve this equation, we will need to solve for the variable x. First, we need to get rid of the fraction in the left side of the equation by multiplying both sides by 8. 8(1/4 + x/8) = 8(3/4) Next, we can combine the like terms on the left side of the equation. 1 + x = 6 Now, we can subtract 1 from both sides of the equation in order to solve for x. 1 + x - 1 = 6 - 1 x = 5 Therefore, the solution to the equation 1/4 + x/8 = 3/4 is x = 5.
