OK, so it might not look as nice as Carol's, but it's less space and mathematically quite neat...

Newest one still stands at:

100, 50, 10, 25, 6, 7, [909]

Orion

100 + (50/10) + 25 = 130 * 7 = 910

(100 + 50) * 6 = 900 + 25 - 7 - 10 = 908

meditraitor

25 + 100 = 125
125 x 7 = 875
875 + 50 - 6 =919
919 - 10 = 909

i can only get one either side...
100+50=150

900+10=910

[edit] Scratch that - I used the 1 twice

I don't think I've ever seen a double digit target!

You can't have two 25's. So do my one instead

meditraitor

10 + 4 = 14
14 x 25 = 350
2 + 25 = 27
350 - 27 - 6 = 317

A very tough one. Can it be done, do you know, Meditraitor?

I can do 720 a couple of ways, e.g.

2/2 = 1
6+4=10
10-1 = 9
8*10 = 80
9*80 =720

i can get 720...

2+6=8X8=64+6+2=72X10=720

thegills

6x10=60
8+4=12
60x12=720
2/2=1 (is division allowed)
720+1=721

Excellent!! Division is certainly allowed.

Your turn to post one up, thegills

strassenwolf

Well, there's no sign of thegills, so I'll post one up:


2, 4, 6, 8, 50, 100 T = 939

Agent Smith

100 / 4 = 25
50 x 25 = 1250
1250 + 2 = 1252
1252 x 6 = 7512
7512 / 8 = 939

Agent Smith

100 75 25 50 7 8

Target : 151


So easy, it will Knock your socks off!
