Math Brain Teasers 20:: Number Puzzle - Add Only 8s to Make 1000
Hey  All;  @StemGeeks Mathematician;

I guess this puzzle of the addition of numbers should be an easy one to solve.  But wait the twist in the puzzle is that you just need to use the **Number 8** only and add it up in a manner that when you total up the sum should be **1000**

Let's take an example; I'm using the number * as follows::


### 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 =  32; which is not the correct answer...  

You need to Add up 8 in a manner that the resultant is 1000; it's that SIMPLE... Can you do it?

- Step 1 The Numbers in the equation which are tilted need to be removed from the equation. For example, let's see the first equation.

The tilted number is 13; so remove 13 from the equation

we are now left with the number **47**

### Add 4 + 7  =  11


- Step 2 In a similar fashion let's resolve the equation in question::

Remove 89 from the equation we are left with the number **32**

### Add 3 + 2  = 5

Hence the Answer to the **Math Brain Teasers 19:: Maths Equation Puzzle?** is  **5**

@dkmathstats ·
I got the same as chemistry-tutor. Do `888 + 88 + 8 + 8 + 8`.  Adding 888 with 88 gives 976. You then need 24 to get to 1000 which is done from adding 8 3 times.

@harpreetjanda ·
there are multiple ways to achieve this.
Here is one such solution:

88 + 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 +  8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8

@saachi ·
It is more like 1000/8 =125. So if you add 8 ,125 times you will get 1000.
So what are best possible option?
888 = 111 times 8
88 = 11 times 8

111+11 =122 and you are short of 3 8's.

so simplest is 888+88+8+8+8
