Let the number be 'x'
6x - 8 = 104
6x = 104 + 8
6x = 112
x = 112/6
x = 56/3

Here's the easiest way to solve this question. Basically do the steps OPPOSITE of the problem to find out the answer,
add 8 to 104, so
104 + 8 = 112
Now to find out the six times, do the opposite again. That means to divide.
So divide 112 by 6.
Now you should be able to find the answer.
Good luck to you

6x - 8 = 104 (Add 8 to both sides)
6x = 112 (Divide both sides by 6)
x = 112/6 or 56/3
