Answer:
It's -39/125
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction with 1 in the denominator
Multiply to remove 3 decimal places. Here, you multiply top and bottom by 103 = 1000
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 312 and 1000, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF = 8
Therefore
X=39/125
In conclusion,
−0.312=−39/125
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
