Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE NUMBER THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO 28/8 TO MAKE 6 BE x.

Therefore,

28/8+x=6

or, (28+8x)/8=6

or, (28+8x)/8*8=6*8 {multiplying both sides by 8}

or, 28+8x=48

or, 28+8x-28=48-28 {subtracting both sides by 28}

or, 8x=20

or, 8x/8=20/8 {dividing both sides by 8}

or, x=2.5

Hence, we need to add 2.5 to 28/8 to make 6.
