Answer:

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplify 3/12 to 1/4.

[tex] \frac{x}{8} = \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

2) Multiply both sides by 8.

[tex]x = \frac{1}{4} \times 8[/tex]

3) Simplify 1/4 × 8 to 8/4.

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

4) Simplify 8/4 to 2.

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

Therefor, the answer is x = 2.
