Answer:

The number is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing number and write an equation based on the information given, and solve for x

9x + 6 = 3 * 8

Simplify

9x + 6 = 24

Subtract 6 from both sides

9x + 6 - 6 = 24 - 6

9x = 18

Divide both sides by 9 to isolate x, and solve

9x ÷ 9 = 18 ÷ 9

x = 2
