To solve the equation \( 2f5 - 85 + 2f = 8 \), we first clarify the expression. It seems you might have a typo with "2f5". If we assume it means "2f", then the equation becomes:

\[
2f - 85 + 2f = 8
\]

Now, combine the like terms:

\[
(2f + 2f) - 85 = 8
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
4f - 85 = 8
\]

Next, we isolate \( f \) by adding 85 to both sides:

\[
4f = 8 + 85
\]
\[
4f = 93
\]

Now, divide both sides by 4 to solve for \( f \):

\[
f = \frac{93}{4}
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
f = 23.25
\]

Since \( 23.25 \) is not provided in your response options and there seems to be confusion in the expression \( 2f5 \), if you meant something else, please clarify.

However, if \( 2f5 \) represents a different expression or had further context, please provide that, and I can assist accordingly! For the existing equation treated as \( 2f \), the answer does not match any of the provided options (4, \( \frac{8}{3} \), 12, or 166).
