Question with eight eight numbers

108 Views Asked by At

Suppose we have eight $8$ and we have to reach $1000$ with eight $8$. Use $+ \space - \space \times \space \div \space \sqrt{} \space \cdots $ to reach $1000$. Please help me to find at least one more possible solution except that I will write below.
$$8 \space \square \space 8 \space \square \space8 \space \square \space8 \space \square \space8 \space \square \space8 \space \square \space8 \space \square \space8 \space =1000 $$ one possible solution,that i found $$888+88+8+8+8=1000$$

$***$ Parenthesis is allowed. Rationals allowed. Integer division allowed. Exponents allowed. Factorials allowed. but I got stuck to find more.
Thanks for any solution or hint in advance.

\begin{equation} \begin{split} 1000&=(8+8)\times 8\times \sqrt{8\times 8}-8-8-8\\ &=8\times 8\times8\times\sqrt{\sqrt{8+8}}-8-8-8\\ &=88\times 88\div 8+8\times \sqrt{8+8}\\ \end{split} \end{equation}

If allowed to use exponents, another solution is:

$$1000=(8+(8+8)\div8)^{\sqrt{\sqrt{8+8}}+8\div8}$$

$8×(8×(8+8)-\dfrac{8+8+8}{8})$

There are lots of solutions. For example:

$$ \eqalign{1000 &= 8 \cdot( 8 \cdot 8 + 8 \cdot 8) - (8+8+8)\cr &= (8+8)\cdot(8 \cdot 8 - \frac{8+8}{8}) + 8\cr &= ((8 + 8) \cdot 8 - \frac{8}{8}) \cdot 8 - (8 + 8)}$$
