I think the answer would be 18.125. I was never any good at these problems, but this would be my educated guess. 1/8 of 7 squared would be 6.125. 6.125 less than x(a number) would be 12. if i were to minus 6.125 from 18.125 the answer would equal 12. then again, my mind usually gets all fungled up and i dont know where i'm going with a problem. hopefully i'm right, and hopefully you dont sue. for the love of god, dont sue.
