    (Sorry for the delay earlier; I thought Agent Smith had posted the right answer and was waiting for him to set a new puzzle.)
    10, 8, 4, 3, 3, 1 ---> 482
    ((10 * 8) + 1) * (3 + 3) - 4 = 482

    result :

    891...


    75+25 =100

    100x(5+4) = 900

    3X3 = 9
    900- 9 = 891



    give me a while for my brain to wake up

    75 x 4 =300

    300 x 3 = 900

    3 x 5 = 15

    25 - 15 = 10

    900 - 10 = 890



    give me a few min's


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 21,504 Mod ✭✭✭✭Agent Smith


    target :889
    result :889 (after almost an hour!)

    here we go....


    75 - 4 = 71

    71 x 25 = 1775

    1775 + 3 = 1778

    5-3 = 2

    1778 / 2

    = 889


    or...

    75 -3 = 72

    5 + 4 + 3 =12

    72 x12 = 864 +25 = 889




    takes almost an hour and i then work it out twice....


    new game in a few min's when i work one out...
