    bah - I can only get it if you assume integer division, in which case:

    25-5=20*75=1550+50+7=1557/2=778 (remainder 1)

    Is that allowed?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    Actually - same theme, different result.

    50+2=52*75=3900+25=3925/5=785-7=778

    That's a **** type type of question - can't really be solved without a calcultor.

    Please set a realistic problem. I can get 925 and I don't think you can get a whole lot closer.

    One that can be solved in a few minutes would be nice...


  • Registered Users Posts: 586 ✭✭✭The_g-man


    [100+75+50]*4+25-2=923.

    Closest I could get.:o


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    75-2=73*50=3650+25+2=3677/4=919.25

    Which is marginally closer :p

    921 cannot be done.

    920 is the closest.
    50-4=46
    46 * 100 = 4600

    75/25=3
    3+2=5

    4600/5 = 920



    Next:
    1, 2, 3, 4, 75, 100
    target = 921
    :p
