If you're looking for an expression then it will be:

6n - 10 = 8
              6x                   -                    10  =  8
 Six times a number decreased by 10 is 8

Your equation is 
6x - 10 = 8

Now solve for x 
6x - 10 = 8

Add 10 to each side
6x - 10 + 10 = 8 + 10
6x = 18

Divide each side by 6
6x ÷ 6 = 18 ÷ 6
x = 3
