8 more than a number

"8 more than" means you are adding 8 to the number.
8 + x
For example,
Say you worked 32 hours last week and I worked 40 hours. I could say that worked 8 hours more than you did.

The answer is not 8>x.
Both 8+x or x+8 are correct because addition is commutative.
8>x is read "8 is more than x" or "8 is greater than x". (You need the word "is")
