Answer:

x = [tex]\frac{5}{26}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

[tex]\frac{3}{4}x + \frac{5}{8} = 4x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3(2)x + 5}{8} = 4x[/tex]            ∵taking GCF 8

[tex]\frac{8 (6x + 5) }{8}[/tex]  = 4x × 8

6x + 5 = 32x    ⇒   5 = 32x - 6x   ⇒  5 = 26x   ⇒  x = [tex]\frac{5}{26}[/tex]
