Using Eights to Make One Thousand

The video tutorial challenges viewers to use eight instances of the number 8 in addition to make 1000. Initially, the sum of 888 and 88 is used, which totals 976, leaving a difference of 24. This difference is then filled by adding three more eights (8 + 8 + 8), achieving the target of 1000. The tutorial demonstrates how to creatively use numbers to solve mathematical puzzles.

What is the initial challenge presented in the video?

• To use six eights to make one hundred

• To use seven eights to make five hundred

• To use five eights to make nine hundred

• To use eight eights in addition to make one thousand
