Answer:
first cross multiply
2x×4=3×8
8x=24
then, divide both sides by "8" so x could be alone
x=24/8
x=3

Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage by which the gas tank of the car is full = 40%
Amount of gas in the gas tank = 8 gallons
Let us assume the capacity of the gas tank = x gallons
Then
40% * x = 8
(40/100) * x = 8
4x/10 = 8
4x = 8 * 10
4x = 80
x = 80/4
= 20 gallons
So the total capacity of the gas tank of the car is 20 gallons. I hope the procedure is clear to you.
Supposing that the integers are x, y and z, and that their average is 8, then
x+y+z
-------- = 8, or x + y + z = 24.

Let's experiment. Making up a table, we get:
x y z sum (sum MUST be 24)
5 9 10 24
4 9 11 24
3 10 11 24
2 11 11 24
1 11 12 24
1 10 13 24
1 1 22 24
Can't choose integers smaller than 1, so it appears that 22 is the largest possible integer that could be one of x, y and z.
