Let us consider the number as x
By the given condition,
1/3 (1/4 x) = 12
or, 1/3 (x/4) = 12
or, x/4 = 12 × 3
or, x/4 = 36
or, x = 36 × 4
or, x = 144
So, the number is 144
Now, 2/8 th of 144
= 2/8 × 144
= 2 × 18
= 36

Let required number is x,
According to the question,
1/3 × (1/4 of x) = 12
1/3 × (1/4 × x)
1/4 × x = 12 × 3
x = 12 × 3 × 4
x = 144
144 is the required number.
=======================
Then,
2/8 of 144
=> 2/8 × 144
=> 2 × 18
=> 36 [ your answer]
I hope this will help you
