C

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. የተሰጠውን እኩልታ እንፃፍ።

    The given equation is:

    x−84=5\frac{x - 8}{4} = 5
  2. የ x−8x - 8 ን ዋጋ ለማግኘት የእኩልታውን ሁለቱንም ጎኖች በ 4 እናባዛ።

    To isolate x−8x - 8, multiply both sides of the equation by 4:

    4×x−84=5×44 \times \frac{x - 8}{4} = 5 \times 4 x−8=20x - 8 = 20
  3. የ xx ን ዋጋ ለማግኘት የእኩልታውን ሁለቱንም ጎኖች ላይ 8 እንጨምር።

    To isolate xx, add 8 to both sides of the equation:

    x−8+8=20+8x - 8 + 8 = 20 + 8 x=28x = 28
  4. መልሱን ከተሰጡት አማራጮች ጋር እናነፃፅር።

    Comparing the result with the given options:
    A) 26
    B) 27
    C) 28
    D) 29
    The calculated value x=28x = 28 matches option C.

    The value of xx is 28\boxed{\text{28}}.
    The correct option is C).
