Need to know how to find x.

-x/3 = 1/8

can anyone help?

I would start by multiplying each side by -3

Thanks! I did that and ended up with a -3/8!

To find the value of x in the equation -x/3 = 1/8, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the fraction on the left side:
(-x/3) * 3 = (1/8) * 3

This simplifies to:
-x = 3/8

Step 2: Multiply both sides of the equation by -1 to isolate x and make it positive:
(-1) * (-x) = (-1) * (3/8)

This results in:
x = -3/8

So, the value of x in the given equation is -3/8.
