Eighty-six (3)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
rid
'eighty-six' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for rid that I've seen before include "Free, disencumber" , "Free, deliver, clear" , "Disabuse" , "Free from something unpleasant" , "Free (someone of something unwanted)" .)
