3 - 1/8a = 1/4
The goal is to isolate "a" and its coefficient to make the simplification process easier.
Start by subtracting 3 from both sides:
3 - 3 - 1/8a = 1/4 -3
-1/8a = 1/4 - 3
Next, multiply 3 by 4/4 to convert it into a fraction:
-1/8a = 1/4 - [3 • (4/4)]
-1/8a = 1/4 - 12/4
-1/8a = - 11/4
Multiply both sides by -8:
(-8) -1/8a = - 11/4 (-8)
a = 88/4 = 22
Therefore, a = 22.

I disagree. The first one is false. No exponent rules apply if the bases AND the exponents are different.
The second one is true. Bases are the sane so you add exponents. You get 3 to the -5 power. Written with positive exponents it’s 1/3 to the 5.
Your answer is 62.5. Hope i helped
