Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that dont contain variables
Answer: x=3
Answer:
3x² – 2x – 8
=> 3x² – 6x + 4x – 8
=> 3x( x – 2 ) + 4( x – 2 )
=> ( 3x + 4 ) ( x – 2 )
Therefore,
Either, 3x + 4 = 0
3x = - 4
x = - 4/3 (Ans)
And,
x – 2 = 0
x = 2 (Ans)

7 7/8
= [ (8*7) + 7 ] / 8
= (56 + 7) / 8
=63 / 8
similarly,
3 1/4
=[ (4*3) + 1] / 4
= (12 + 1) / 4
= 13/4
----------------------------
now put the values
7 7/8 - 3 1/4
= 63/8 - 13/4
here, take LCM of 8 & 4 which is 8.
now,
[ (1*63) - (2 * 13) ] / 8
= (63 - 26) / 8
= 37/8
= 4 5/8........................[ here, divide 37 by 8 which gives reminder as 5 and divisible value as 4 ]</span>
I got 6.3 not sure if Im right
I'm sorry you need to be more clear I don't understand the question.
