Five Number game.

[[Ol...]]

I was wondering if some members would like to try a simple number game that goes like this.

 

Each game uses five numbers from 1 - 9.

 

Each number given MUST be used once, and ONLY once, to calculate the target number.

 

+  -  x  ÷ may be used to reach the target number.

 

Eg.  Use 2. 3.  4.  7.  8. to reach 30.

 

7 + 3 = 10

2 x 8 = 16

10 + 16 + 4 = 30

 

Using 2 3 5 6 9 and any of  + - x ÷

see if you can hit 26

4x8 = 32

32-7 = 25

25 + 2 + 3 = 30

 

Like that?

[[Ol...]]

4x8 = 32

32-7 = 25

25 + 2 + 3 = 30

 

Like that?

 

I like. Try the other one above.

I thought I just did? Oh, tell me where I went wrong. I used 2,3,4,7,8 to reach 30.  Ok, Dave. Tell me what I did wrong!

You didn't go wrong I meant  2  3  5  6  9  = 26

[[Fl...]]

  ok, I get ya, now!

 

5 x 6 = 30

30 - 9 = 21

21 + 3 + 2 = 26

 

Now my turn to post one, right?

 

1, 2, 3, 7, 9 = 10

[[Ol...]]

9 + 7 = 16

3 + 2 +1 = 6

16 - 6 = 10

 

 

3  4  6  7  8  = 13

 

Your go

[[Ch...]]

9 X 3 = 27

27 - 7 = 20

20 X 1 (divided by) 2= 10

[[Ch...]]

9 + 7 = 16

3 + 2 +1 = 6

16 - 6 = 10

 

 

3  4  6  7  8  = 13

 

Your go

 

6 X 4 = 24

24 -8 = 16

16 - 3 = 13

 

(just throw the 7 away)

[[Ch...]]

9 + 7 = 16

3 + 2 +1 = 6

16 - 6 = 10

 

 

3  4  6  7  8  = 13

 

Your go

 

Okay, I'll try again.

 

6 X 7 = 42

42 - (8 X 4) = 10

10 + 3 = 13

If you get one can you post the next problem please. They're easy to make up and it means not relying on one person to play the game. That can keep it going 24/7

First one fine Challis but not second one.

 

4 Must be used.

4 5 6 8 9 = 15

[[Ol...]]

 

4 5 6 8 9 = 15

 

9 - 8 = 1

(4 + 5) x 1 = 9

9 + 6 = 15

 

2  3  6  7  9  = 27

[[Fl...]]

6 x 9 = 54

54/3 = 18

18 + 2 + 7 = 27

 

3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 = 11

I know Laura, some times numbers are easy and sometimes they swim around on the page.
