Let's break down the steps shown in the image to find out what number you will get:

Let the number you think of be $x$:

1. Step 1: Think of a number between 1 and 10. Let's call it $x$.
2. Step 2: Add 6 to your number. Now you have $x + 6$.
3. Step 3: Add $-8$ to the result. This gives $x + 6 - 8 = x - 2$.
4. Step 4: Subtract 3. Now you have $x - 2 - 3 = x - 5$.
5. Step 5: Subtract the number you first thought of ($x$). This becomes $(x - 5) - x = -5$.

So, no matter what number you choose at the beginning, the final result will always be $-5$.

Would you like more details on any part of the process?

Here are 5 questions to expand your understanding:

1. What happens if the initial number is negative?
2. Can this method be used with numbers greater than 10?
3. Why does the process always result in $-5$?
4. How would the result change if the steps were modified?
5. What is the mathematical principle behind this type of problem?

Tip: Problems like this often rely on the cancellation of variables, so pay attention to how the initial number is subtracted out!
