【Question 8】
A monkey picked a pile of peaches. It is known that on the first day, it ate half of all the peaches minus 12, on the second day, it ate half of the remaining peaches plus 12, and finally, 19 peaches were left. Originally, this pile of peaches had $\qquad$ peaches.
【Analysis and Solution】
Restoration problem.
Before eating on the second day, there were $(19+12) \times 2=62$;
Before eating on the first day, there were $(62-12) \times 2=100$, that is, the original pile of peaches had 100.
