#4# Amperes

Explanation:

Since #V = IR#

Where:
#V# = Voltage
#I# = Current
#R# = Resistance #Omega#

We can derive the formula for #I# (Current) By simply dividing both sides of the equation by #R#, giving:

#I = V/R#

Plug the given to the equation:

#I = 8/2#

hence, the answer is #I = 4# Amperes
