Set up equations and solve them to find the unknown numbers in the following cases: (a) Add 4 to eight times a number; you get 60. (b) One fifth of a number minus 4 gives 3. (c) If I take three fourths of a number and count up 3 more, I get 21. (d) When I subtracted 11 from twice a number, the result was 15. (e) Munna subtracts thrice the number of notebooks he has from 50, he finds the result to be 8. (f) Ibenhal thinks of a number. If she adds 19 to it and divides the sum by 5, she will get 8. (g) Anwar thinks of a number. If he takes away 7 from `5/2` of the number, the result is `11/2`.
