Step-by-step explanation:

At the gym, Jasper was able to bench press 224 pounds, which was 7/8 of the weight that Balin was able to bench press.

Let  x be the weight that Balin could bench press.

We have

         [tex]224=\frac{7}{8}x\\\\x=\frac{8\times 224}{7}=256[/tex]

That is

         x = 256

Equation is
