HOW MANY TIMES DOES THE DIGIT 8 OCCUR BETWEEN 1 AND 100?

Digit Times

10 numbers end in 8 (8, 18, … 98)
10 more begin with 8 (80, 81, … 89)
Total number of 8’s is 20.

There are 9 1-digit numbers, and 90 2-digit numbers, for a total of 189 digits used to write all the numbers from 1 to 99. Each non-zero digit appears 20 times (for 9×20=180). The logic is identical to that above.
Zero appears only at the end of 10, 20 … 90 (for 9 times).

180 + 9 = 189, the total number of digits.

It’s helpful to count up all the cases for all the digits, to make sure you account for everything. That’s a good way to check your results.

It occurs once in every group of ten numbers plus in the eighties it appears an additional 10 times as the leading digit, so 10+10=20 times….

20 times 8 , {8,18,28,38,48,58,68,78,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,89,98} 18 times +{88} 2 times; same goes for 2,3,4,5,6,7,9 s occurrences
11 times 0 , {10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90} 9 times +{100} 2 times;
21 times 1 , {1,10,[11],12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,21,31,41,51,61,71,81,91,100}
