Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number.

  4x^2 = 8x . . . . . 4 times the square of a number is 8 times that number

  4x^2 -8x = 0 . . . . subtract 8x

  4x(x -2) = 0 . . . . . factor

  x = 0  or  x = 2 . . . . the product is zero when the factors are zero

The positive number is 2.
