Answer:

N/A

Explanation:

Let's follow the given procedure for each of the four numbers:

**Let's say the number is \(x\):**

a. Multiply the number by 8: \(8x\)

b. Add 8 to the product: \(8x + 8\)

c. Divide this sum by 2: \(\frac{8x + 8}{2} = 4x + 4\)

d. Subtract 4 from the quotient: \(4x + 4 - 4 = 4x\)

So, for any given number \(x\), the final result after following the procedure is \(4x\).
