This is your typical algebra question where you are looking for an unknown value given some information. The information can be set up as:
8 - x = 4*(x +3)
Distribute the 4:
8 - x = 4x + 12
Rearrange to get variables on one side:
8 - 12 = 4x + x
Simplifiy:
-4 = 5x
Isolate the variable:
-4/5 = x
The answer is A. 14h + 11d
because if you 3d and 8d it will give you 11d
the take 24h and subtract to 10h it will give you 14h
so when you write it you answer is 14h + 11d
Hope this helps! :)

(p)=(333+114)•3
because 114 pages are already read and if he needs 333 pages to reach 1/3 of the book you add 114 and 333 so you can find out how much pages is 1/3 of the book. then you multiply that number by 3 because there are 3 sections of 333+114.
