The number predicted is 98765 and using calculator gives 888888 which confirms it is correct.
Given data
9*9+7=88
98*9+6=888
987*9+5=8888
9876*9+4=88888
Using inductive reasoning and the given data as the premise we can see that the number multiplying 9 is gotten by adding a new digit which is a lesser digit of the preceding number while counting backwards.
Using the last operation as instance we have that
9876*9+4=88888
the last digit that joined is 6, and this number is the next digit after 7 while counting backwards. Also the number 4 added is the next after 5 while counting backwards.
so we can predict the next row by counting backwards in the two occasions as follows:
counting backwards after 6 is 5 therefore we have 98765
counting backwards after 4 is 3 therefore we have 3
arranging the numbers into row gives
98765 * 9 + 3
adding with a calculator gives
98765 * 9 + 3 = 888888
The number predicted is 98765
