Oh, dude, to get 8, you should subtract infinity, because you'll never actually reach 8 by subtracting finite numbers. But if we're talking about real numbers, you could subtract 16 from 24 and get 8. It's like math, but with a sprinkle of existential crisis.

To find what you should subtract to get 8, you need to set up an equation. Let x be the number you should subtract. The equation would be x - 8 = 0. By solving for x, you will find that x = 8. So, you should subtract 8 to get 8.

Any number you like.

If you want the answer to be X, then start with the number X+8.

Then, when you subtract X, you will get 8 - as required.

Well, honey, if you want to subtract something to get 8, you better start with 16. 16 minus 8 equals 8. So, grab your calculator and do the math, darling.
