Answer:
The number is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have been given to find a number according to the condition that if 8 is less than twice that particular number the answer comes to be 16. For this let us assume the number to be m.
According to the given question we have:
2m - 8 = 16
⇒ 2m = 16 + 8
⇒ 2m = 24
⇒ m = 24 ÷ 2
⇒ m = 12
Therefore the required number is 12
