Your answer is x = 2. This is because if you write out the diagrams as equations you get 3x + 8 = 4x + 6, so then you solve:
3x + 8 = 4x + 6
- 3x
8 = x + 6
- 6
2 = x

I hope this helps!

Hi!

So the model has 3 x's and 8 ones on one sides and 4x's and 6 1's on the other

We can create this equation:

3x+8 = 4x+ 6

Now subtract 8 to the other side and subtract 4x to the other side because you want the x's on one side and the constant on the other

-x = -2

Now don't forget to divide by the negative because you do want only the x alone

Your answer is x = 2 which is C!

Hope this helps!
