\(8+292=300\)

8 out of 300 were defective.

\(\frac{8}{300}=\frac{x}{3000} \\ \\ 8*3000=300*x \\ \\ 24000=300x \\ \\ 80=x\)

80 pairs were defective

Yes, 80 pairs. If you add the 8 pairs back on to 292 it will equal 300. Add a zero to that 300 and the 8, and there's your answer. 80 pairs defective.
