Answer:

d=12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8(3d-2)=1/4(d+5)

1) Distribute the 1/8 to 3d and -2:

3/8d-1/4=1/4(d+5)

2) Distribute the 1/4 to d and 5:

3/8d-1/4=1/4d+5/4

3) Add 1/4 to both sides:

3/8d=1/4d+3/2

4) Subtract 1/4d from both sides:

1/8d=3/2

5) Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/8: (8/1)

d=24/2

6) Simplify the fraction:

d=12

Let me know if you have any confusion :)
