Answer:

  • greatest: 8872
  • smallest: 2278

Explanation:

Greatest

The greatest possible number is created by putting the greatest allowable digit in the space available that has the highest possible place value. Here, the greatest digit is 8, and the highest place value of a 4-digit number is the thousands place: 8000. Once you have filled that place, you can use the digit 8 one more time in the hundreds place: 8800.

Now, the greatest digit available is the digit 7, and the left-most place you can put it is the tens place: 8870. Finally, the only digit and place available are the digit 2 and the ones place.

Your greatest 4-digit number is 8872.

Smallest

To form the smallest number, you use a similar process, filling places in the number from left to right with the smallest allowable digit. The smallest digit, 2, is allowed twice, so the smallest number that can be formed is 2278.
