We have $3 x - 8 = 26$ $3x - 8 = 26$

$\Rightarrow 3 x = 26 + 8$ $implies 3x = 26 + 8$
$\Rightarrow 3 x = 34$ $implies 3x = 34$

Thus, dividing with $3$ $3$ ,

$x = \frac{34}{3}$ $x = 34/3$

$3 x - 8 = 26$ $3x - 8 = 26$

$3 x - 8 + 8 = 26 + 8$ $3x - 8 + 8 = 26 + 8$

$3 x = 34$ $3x = 34$

$\frac{34}{3} = 11 . ¯ 3$ $34 / 3 = 11.bar(3)$
