Do you mean "how can we write or get 3/8 using ×, + or −?" or do you mean "solve for x if x = 3/8"? I'll give a few useful ways to express 3/8:
- As a decimal: 3/8 = 0.375
- As a percent: 3/8 = 37.5%
- Using multiplication: 3/8 = 3 × (1/8) = (3/4) × (1/2)
- Using addition: 3/8 = 1/8 + 1/4 (because 1/8 + 2/8 = 3/8)
- Using subtraction: 3/8 = 1/2 − 1/8 (because 4/8 − 1/8 = 3/8)
- If you mean an equation with x: e.g. x·8 = 3 → x = 3/8, or x = 3/8 directly.
Tell me which interpretation you meant and I can show steps.
