Answer 1

To solve Erika's problem, we can first determine what her number is:

She thinks of a number that is "4 less than 8."

So, we calculate: 8 - 4 = 4

Now, to find a doubles fact that could help Erika understand or express her number, we see that her number is 4. The closest doubles fact that uses the number 4 is:

4 + 4 = 8

So, the correct response is:

4 + 4 = 8
