Answer:
The remainder when four is subtracted from eight times a number is 0.5
Solution:
The remainder when four is subtracted from eight times a number:
Let us assume the number be x
Eight times a number = 8x
From the Question Given that:
4 subtracted from 8 times a number = 8x - 4
To Find the Value of x:
8x - 4 = 0
8x = 4
Divide the values:
x = [tex]\frac{4}{8}[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
x = 0.5
Therefore the value of x is ½ or 0.5
Hence, the remainder when four is subtracted from eight times a number is 0.5
