Math Problem Statement

Write down all of the numbers below where the digit 8 has the value eight hundred. Numbers: 8934, 387, 7841, 782, 8126, 825

Solution

To solve this problem, we need to identify all the numbers where the digit "8" represents "eight hundred."

When "8" represents eight hundred, it must be in the hundreds place of a number. For a number to have 8 in the hundreds place, the number must have at least three digits, and "8" should be the third digit from the right.

Let’s analyze each number:

  1. 8934: The digit "8" is in the thousands place, not the hundreds place. So, this is not a valid number.
  2. 387: The digit "8" is in the tens place. So, this is not a valid number.
  3. 7841: The digit "8" is in the hundreds place. This is a valid number.
  4. 782: The digit "8" is in the tens place. So, this is not a valid number.
  5. 8126: The digit "8" is in the thousands place. So, this is not a valid number.
  6. 825: The digit "8" is in the hundreds place. This is a valid number.

Therefore, the numbers where the digit "8" has the value of eight hundred are:

  • 7841
  • 825
