8t = 104 -- Means what value will "t" be that when multiplied by 8 will equal 104.
to Solve - you transfer the value 8 to the other side -- Since 8 is being multiplied on the left side of the equal sign -- when you transfer 8 to the right side of the equal sign you then do the opposite (divide by) as shown below.
8t = 104
t = 104/8 (we moved the 8 to the right side of the equal sign so that only the variable we are solving for is on the left hand side)
t = 13
To check the answer, you then replace t with the value of 13 in the orginigal equation.
8t=104
8(13) = 104
As you can see when you multiply 8*13 will you get 104.

8t = 104 means 8 * t = 104. Two numbers or variables next to each other sometimes mean the 1st X the 2nd. 104 divided by 8 is 13 so that is the answer.

You are trying to find the value of "t" by getting it alone on one side on the = sign.
you start with
8t=104
then you divide both sides by 8 (because in Algebra, what you do to one side, you do to another)
Dividing by 8 would make the equation look like this:
8t/8=104/8
In the 8t/8 part, the two 8's cancel each other out, so only the "t" is left.
on the other side 104/8=13
so, you are left with
t=13
Hope this helps.

8t = 104? is not actually a question. if you are meant to find out what t = ? then the asnwer would be...
8t = 104
t = 104/8 (changes into divide because it has crossed the quals sign)
t = 104 divided by 8 =13
t =8
answer is 13. get it?
hope i helped =)

8t=104
1. divide each side by 8
2.then divide 104 by 8 or 8 by 104
3.finally you will have the answer which is 13
hey this was soooooo easy there are only 2 steps to solve this problem.

8t=104
divide both sides by 8:
8t/8=104/8
figure out what each side is:
8t/8=t 104/8=13
so then you plug it back in:
t=13
hope I helped :)

since 8t means 8 times t, divide BOTH sides by 8. 8 time t divided by 8 is t.
8t = 104
t = 13

t=13
because a number when beside a letter implies that the two items are to be multiplied. t is unknown, but if you use reversibility you could say 104 / 8 = t (you reverse the equation, and replace the 'x' with a '/' (/=divided))
therefore t=13
dont let the letter put you off, it could be any letter or symbol or smiley face, the key is to rework the question into something tangible.
