As the previous answer said, you can solve for x in the equation by simplifying and solving.
Starting with y=4x+8x
Simplify by adding like terms (4x and 8x)
y=12x
And divide by 12 on both sides to isolate the x
$\frac{y}{12} =x$
Would be your answer
~I hope this helps!~

Deva bought 9 1/2 m of cloth for rupees 28 1/2.Samruth buys 26 1/3 m of same cloth. how much should samruth pay the shopkeeper?

For this case we can make the following rule of three:

9 1/2 m --------------> 28 1/2 rupees

26 1/3 m -------------> x

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

$x = (\frac{26+\frac{1}{3}}{9+\frac{1}{2}}) (28+\frac{1}{2})$
