So just add 1/8 and 2/8. add 1 plus 2 and the denominator (bottom number) stays the same so you get 3/8 then subtract 8/8 minus 3/8 so just 8 minus 3 is 5 and the denominator stays the same so you end up with 5/8 so 5/8 of the book remains unread
BREAKDOWN
10 times: 10 ×
The sum of: ( ) + ( )
which would be : 10 × ( ) + ( )
half a number: 10 × ( X/2 ) + ( )
and 8: 10 × ( X/2 ) + ( 8 )
is 12 : 10 × ( X/2 + 8 ) = 12

SIMPLIFICATION
Multiply ten: 10 X (X/2 + 8) = 12
which equals to: 5x + 80 = 12
bring the like terms together: 5x = 80 - 12
Equals: 5x = 78
Find out X:. x = 78/5
FINAL ANSWER:. X = 15.9
