ReneIf you start with the number 8 and take half away, you are left with 4. However, if you interpret the question as taking half of the original number (8) and then subtracting 3, you would calculate (8/2) - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1. So, in that sense, 8 can "leave" 3 if you take half away and then subtract 3.
