To solve this problem using the equation b/8 + 25 = 500, the operations needed are:

1. Multiply both sides of the equation by 8 to eliminate the fraction: (b/8) * 8 + 25 * 8 = 500 * 8
This simplifies to b + 200 = 4000.

2. Subtract 200 from both sides of the equation to isolate the b variable: b + 200 - 200 = 4000 - 200
This simplifies to b = 3800.

Therefore, Neil started with 3800 beads.
