Well, isn't that a happy little math problem! If you take half of the number 8, you're left with 4. So, 8 can leave 3 if you take half away, leaving behind a cheerful 4. Just remember, in the world of numbers, there's always a way to find balance and harmony.

To solve this riddle, you need to think of the number 8 as a word rather than a numerical value. If you take away the first letter "e" from the word "eight," you are left with the word "ight," which sounds like the number 3 ("three"). So, by taking away half of the letters in the word "eight," you are left with the word "three."

Oh, dude, you're hitting me with a math riddle? Okay, so if 8 leaves 3, you just take half away, right? Well, technically, if you take half of 8, you get 4, and then 4 minus 3 leaves you with 1. So, yeah, 8 can totally leave 3 if you take half away. Math is wild, man.
