X/8 - 10 = x/3
bring the values with the variable on one side
x/3 - x/8 = 10
find a common denominator and subtract these fractions
8x/24 - 3x/24 = -10
now subtract fractions
8x - 3x = 5x
5x/24 = -10
multiply both sides by 24
5x = -240
divide both sides by 5
x = -48
the number is -48
12,500 / 100 = 125 125 x 4.5 = 562.5 562.5 x 4 = 2250
2250 + 12,500 = 14,750 He paid back a total of $14,750. Hope this helps :)

Correct choice is B
Step-by-step explanation:
In step 4 were proved that 
By definition, similar triangles have proportional lengths of corresponding sides. To the side AB corresponds side ED, to the side AC corresponds side DC and to the side BC corresponds side EC. Thus,
