First, we need to isolate the x by removing the 3 from the x.

8=3+x/-6
8-3 = 3-3+x/-6
5 = x/-6.

Then you remove the -6 from the x and since it is being divided by x we multiply it
5 x -6 = x/-6x-6
-30 = x
So x = -30

Step 1. Move the negative sign to the left

\(8=3- \frac{x}{6}\)

Step 2. Subtract 3 from both sides

\(8-3=- \frac{x}{6}\)

Step 3.  Simplify 8 - 3 to 5

\(5=- \frac{x}{6}\)

Step 4. Multiply both sides by 6

\(5 * 6= -x\)

Step 5. Simplify 5 * 6 to 30

\(30=-x\)

Step 6. Multiply both sides by -1

\(-30=x\)

Step 7. Switch sides

\(x=-30\)

Done! :) Hope this helps!
