  6         
----- = -3/4
x + 8       
$$\frac{6}{x + 8} = - \frac{3}{4}$$
Detail solution
Given the equation:
$$\frac{6}{x + 8} = - \frac{3}{4}$$
Use proportions rule:
From a1/b1 = a2/b2 should a1*b2 = a2*b1,
In this case
a1 = 6

b1 = 8 + x

a2 = 1

b2 = -4/3

so we get the equation
$$\frac{\left(-4\right) 6}{3} = x + 8$$
$$-8 = x + 8$$
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$0 = x + 16$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$- x = 16$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -1
x = 16 / (-1)

We get the answer: x = -16
