What is in this set

The numbers in this set run from 2 to 12.
Every problem in it will take one step.
A careful solution takes 1 written step on average.
The mistake this set invites most often, in 100% of the problems: both sides were divided by 8 again.
Answers are a whole number.

Drawing 240 problems from this page produced 82 different ones, 34% — so a sheet of 20 will come back to a problem you have seen — there are only so many sensible ones of this kind.
