    Company had 54 costumers 1 year ago.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x be the number of company's customers 1 year ago,

    Since, currently, the customers are 8 more than twice the number of customers the company had 1 year ago,

    So, the current number of costumers = 2x + 8,

    According to the question,

    2x + 8 = 116

    Subtract 8 on both sides,

    2x = 108

    Divide both sides by 2

    x = 54

    Hence, company had 54 costumers 1 year ago.
