  1. Answer:

    [tex] – 9[/tex]

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the required number be x.

    According to the question,

    x2−84=3×(x+8)

    ⇒x2−84=3x+24

    ⇒x2−3x−84−24=0

    ⇒x2−3x−108=0

    ⇒x2−12x+9x−108=0

    ⇒x(x−12)+9(x−12)=0

    ⇒(x−12)(x+9)=0

    ⇒x−12=0 or x−9=0

    ⇒x=12 or x=−9(x=−9 is not a natural
