8 time x = 40 minus 10 = ?

8x = 40-10 = 30,

X = 30/8 = 15/4 = 3 3/4.

Please post your choices.

To solve this equation, we'll start by simplifying the right-hand side of the equation:

40 - 10 = 30

Now, we have:

8 * x = 30

To find the value of x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Since x is being multiplied by 8, we can undo this operation by dividing both sides of the equation by 8:

(8 * x) / 8 = 30 / 8

Simplifying further:

x = 3.75

So, 8 times x is equal to 3.75.
