The equation to represent the sum of eight and a number is one hundred is 8 + n = 100. The number is 92.

The equation to represent the sum of eight and a number is one hundred is:

8 + n = 100

To find the value of the number, we need to isolate n. We can do this by subtracting 8 from both sides of the equation:

8 + n - 8 = 100 - 8

Simplifying the equation gives us:

n = 92

So, the number is 92.
