    10.4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    10 (0.5x + 6) = 8

    Distribute 10 to each term inside the parentheses.

    5x + 60 = 8

    Subtract 60 from both sides of the equal sign.

    5x = - 52

    Divide by 5 on both sides of the equal sign.

    x = 10.4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x be the number.

    We know that 10 (x/2 + 6) = 8.

    So (x/2 + 6) = 0.8

    x/2 = 0.8 - 6 = - 5.2

    x = - 5.2 * 2 = - 10.4
