Using tally marks, which one of the following represents the number eight:

Options

•  

• `cancel(bb|bb|bb|)` `cancel(bb|bb|bb|)`

• `cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|bb|) bb|bb|`

• `cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|) bb|bb|bb|`

Answer 1

`cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|) bb|bb|bb|`

Explanation:

We know that,

8 = 5 + 3

Here, 5 is represented by `cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|)` and 3 is represented by `bb|bb|bb|`.

So, 8 is represented by `cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|) bb|bb|bb|`.
