SOLUTION: Please, I have tried this one several times. Solve the equation {{{7+3t over 4 = -t over 8}}}. I began by multiplying both sides by 4 over 1, is this where I should have started?

Equate both sides (make both of their denominators, 8)
One side already has a denominator of 8 so we only need to multiply the left hand side by 2 to make its denominator 8 as well
As we have common denominators, we can get rid of them now, they don't matter, our equation is balanced
