We have to use the Distributive Property in this equation.
By the Distributive Property,
\(8(x+2)=36\)
becomes
\(8x+16=36.\)
Now we need to isolate x. Remember PEMDAS?
\(8x=20\)
\(x=20/8\)
Simplify the right side.
\(x=10/4\)
\(x=5/2\)

Use the distributive property and multiply 8 with x an 8 with 2 which will give you 8x + 16 = 36

subtract 16 on both sides which gives you 8x = 20
divide 8 on both sides which gives you x = 2 4/20 or 2 1/5

X=2 1/5
