Solving the problem by working backward.

For Question number 8:

The final number is given as 8 (which is the result of all the operations)

Working backwards, Firstly we need to undo the addition of 4 by subtracting 4 from the result.

[tex]8-4\text{ = 4}[/tex]

secondly, we will undo the division by 3, by multiplying the result above by 3.

[tex]4\times3\text{ = 12}[/tex]

Then we have our answer.

The number is 12
