Question #f9075

Answer 1

if you add 125 8's you get 1000

Explanation:

Multiplication is the addition of many numbers just simplified for example,

`5*8=8+8+8+8+8`

Division is the inverse of multiplication so in we divide 1000 by 8 we will find how many times "8 goes into 1000".

`1000/8=125`

which can be rewritten,

`1000=125*8`

which is equivalent to,

`1000=8_"1"+8_"2"+8_"2"+8_"4"+8_"5"+8_"6" " ...."+8_"123"+8_"124"+8_"125"`

Or in other words, if you add 125 8's you get 1000
