    9×8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1+0=100 is the answer because i started from the highest to the lowest.

    i worked the answer out, i work out that 9×8=72+7=79=85+5=90+4=94+3=97+2=99+1=100+0=100 so

    9×8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1+0=100

    0u 1u 2u 3u 4u 5u 6u 7u 8u 9u.I will put a u=used when i use the number.

    1.9 x 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 – 0 = 100

    Great effort Gregory, good to see that you looked at another slightly different sequence . But instead of the ‘=’ sign , you need a plus sign. Can you figure out why? Great stuff!!!
