Idk...

anonymous · Answer

one of them has to be 888 otherwise it would be too large of a difference to actually make it to 1000

anonymous · Answer

which leaves 5 eights left and only doing single eights wont make it

anonymous · Answer

so that has to be an 88 as well (i hope were allowed to use a calculator otherwise im cheating :D)

anonymous · Answer

yes u are

anonymous · Answer

so 3 eights left, and no other possibility but for them to be single eights. so the answer is 888 + 88 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 1000
