$$\frac{3 x - 11}{4} = \frac{3 - 5 x}{8}$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
(3*x-11)/4 = (3-5*x)/8

Expand brackets in the left part
3*x/4-11/4 = (3-5*x)/8

Expand brackets in the right part
3*x/4-11/4 = 3/8-5*x/8

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$\frac{3 x}{4} = \frac{25}{8} - \frac{5 x}{8}$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\frac{11 x}{8} = \frac{25}{8}$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 11/8
x = 25/8 / (11/8)

We get the answer: x = 25/11
