8 + S
s= -8 + n, or s=n - 8, where s is the sum and n is the number
This is simple algebra. Let the unknown number be n. Then the sum of this number and 8 = n + 8.
the sum of 8 and 4 times a number is 36
five times the sum of a number and 8 is -15.
There can be no number with an odd sum of 8 because 8 is not odd!
N - 8
s(8+t)
The set S of all positive divisors of 8 (excluding 8 itself) is S = {1 2 4}. Because the sum of those numbers (1+2+4 = 7) is less than 8, the number 8 is what Nicomachus would call a "deficient number".
The sum of 8 and 5 is 13. There is then no number with which to calculate its product.
The sum of the first 8 odd numbers is 64.
8 greater than the original number.
A perfect number is the sum of its divisors; for example 6 is a perfect number because the sum of its divisors is 6 (1 + 2 + 3). The sum of the divisors of 8 is 7 (1 + 2 + 4), so 8 is not a perfect number.
