The object of this challenge is to develop ten mathematical expressions that equal 8. You must use the digits 2, 7 and one other. This other digit must be a 0 in the first expression, a 1 in the next expression, a 2 in the next expression and so on, up to 9. You must use the 2, the 7 and the other digit once and only once in each expression. (Note: For the analitically challenged, the solution(s) when the "other digit" is 2 will have two 2's, the solution(s) when the "other digit" is 7 will have two 7's.) You may use +, -, *, /, exponentiation, decimal points and parentheses. Here're the two known solutions when using 2, 7 and 1. 8=2+7-1=12+7 (2nd solution by John Stokes)
