Given: 
To solve this equation, we need to isolate 
on one side of the equation algebraically. I see that we have like terms, but they are on opposite sides of the equal sign. Let's add

To isolate x, divide both sides by 7.
Answer:
We can call the amounts of red, gray, and brown dye 1 1/8x, 3/4x and 5/8 x respectively and we can write the equation:
1 1/8x + 3/4x + 5/8x = 20
2 1/2x = 20
x = 8 which means that the stylist needs 1 1/8 * 8 = 9 oz red, 3/4 * 8 = 6 oz gray and 5/8 * 8 = 5 oz brown.
