To solve the equation \(2f5 - 85 + 2f = 8\), we first rewrite and simplify the equation. It appears there might be a formatting issue with \(2f5\). Assuming it means \(2f \cdot 5\) which simplifies to \(10f\), the equation becomes:

\[
10f - 85 + 2f = 8
\]

Next, combine like terms:

\[
(10f + 2f) - 85 = 8
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
12f - 85 = 8
\]

Now, add 85 to both sides to isolate the term with \(f\):

\[
12f = 8 + 85
\]

\[
12f = 93
\]

Now, divide by 12 to solve for \(f\):

\[
f = \frac{93}{12}
\]

To simplify \(\frac{93}{12}\):

1. Find the greatest common divisor of 93 and 12, which is 3.
2. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 3:

\[
f = \frac{93 \div 3}{12 \div 3} = \frac{31}{4}
\]

Finally, as a decimal, \( \frac{31}{4} = 7.75 \).

The possible answers listed do not include \( \frac{31}{4} \) or \( 7.75 \). If you have options incomplete or misinterpreted, please verify the equation.

Just using the provided options and knowing none match exactly, we look at the closeness of numerical approximations or if the intended interpretation of the equation has changed what one expected.

Could you double-check the equation provided?

The solution to the equation \(2f5 - 85 + 2f = 8\) (assuming \(2f5\) means \(10f\)) is:

\[
f = \frac{31}{4}
\]

This doesn't appear to exactly match any of your provided response options. However, if you take the decimal equivalent:

\[
f = 7.75
\]

The closest responses you provided were:

- 4
- \( \frac{16}{6} \) (which simplifies to \( \frac{8}{3} \) or approximately 2.67)
- 12
- 83

None of these options correctly match the solution.

Please confirm if I can help further or clarify!

Given the options you provided and the calculated solution \( f = \frac{31}{4} \) or approximately \( 7.75 \), the answer that is most reasonably close is:

**12**

None of the options are exact, but 12 is the nearest number compared to the others you've listed.
