Question: If 8 is subtracted 8 times from a number the result is 8 find the number

-------------------------------

Answer:

Let the unknown number be 'x'

8 is subtracted 8 times from 'x', so now we write an equation

x - 8(8)

When x - 8(8) gives 8, so now the equation becomes,

x - 8(8) = 8

Now since we have obtained the equation, we equate it!

x - 8(8) = 8

x - 64 = 8

x = 8 + 64

x = 72

Therfore the number is '72'

Now if we subtract 8 times 72 from 8 we must obtain 8, lets check whether the answer is correct.

72 - 8(8) = 8

  72 - 64 = 8

        8 = 8

∴LHS = RHS

Answer is correct!
