    Dont 5 of the nums hav to be between 1 and 9, or did i miss a rule change along the way.

    75*(7+7-4) = 750 + (50/2) = 725.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 127 ✭✭pseudonym


    Obviously, that plus shud be a minus, shud read

    75*(7+7-4) = 750 - (50/2) = 725.

    75X7 = 525
    50X4=200
    200+525=725
    725+2=727

    100 + 10 + 5 +5 =120
    120 x 6 = 720

    no you didnt...

    50 * 4 = 200

    100/25 = 4
    (6+4) = 10

    10 -9 = 1

    200 - 1 = 199
