Answer:
$75^(\circ)F$

Explanation:

Given

If the temperature falls by
$8^(\circ)$ in 3 hours

Present temperature is
$67^(\circ)F$

The difference in temperature i.e.

$\Rightarrow \text{Previous Temperature}-\text{Present temperature}=8\\\Rightarrow \text{Previous Temperature}=8+67=75^(\circ)F$

Temperature 3 hours ago is
$75^(\circ)F$
