Jonah has been saving his earnings from his lemonade stand. Jonah has 84 dollars to spend. If He buys a new hat for 23 dollars, how many scarves can He buy with the remaining spending money if they cost 8 dollars each?

After buying the hat, Jonah has 84 - 23 = <<84-23=61>>61 dollars left.

Jonah can buy 61 / 8 = <<61/8=7.625>>7 scarves with the remaining money.
But since Jonah cannot buy a fraction of a scarf, he can only buy 7 scarves. Answer: \boxed{7}.
