To solve the expression "one eighth of a number reduced by three times the same number," let's break it down step by step:
1. Let's define the unknown number in the expression as "x."
2. "One eighth of a number" can be written as (1/8) * x.
3. "Reduced by three times the same number" means we subtract 3 times x from the previous result.
Putting it all together, the expression becomes:
