Math Problem Statement

How to get a number 100 by using four sevens (7’s) and a one (1)?

Solution

To get the number 100 using four sevens (7’s) and one (1), we need to carefully arrange these numbers with mathematical operations. One possible solution is:

17777=100177 - 77 = 100

Here’s how it works:

  1. Combine three 7's and 1 to form 177.
  2. Subtract 77 (which uses the remaining two 7's).

The calculation is:

17777=100177 - 77 = 100

This solution meets the requirement of using exactly four 7's and one 1.
