Step-by-step explanation:

  • "Three more than" means +3
  • "Quotient" means dividing, its asking for x ÷ 8
  • And it says the answer is equal to 7

Your equation is:

[tex] \frac{x}{8} + 3 = 7[/tex]

  • Subtract 3 on both sides and get:

[tex] \frac{x}{8} = 4[/tex]

  • Multiply both sides by 8 because you wanna get rid of the fraction:

[tex]x = 32[/tex]
