    Not sure I understand why everybody continued after this "solution". It is 1 out, and there is a valid solution available.

    50 + 6 = 56
    8 x 2 x 56 = 896
    100 / 4 = 25
    896 + 25 = 921

    New numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
    Target: 321

    (6*3)-2 = 16
    4*5 = 20
    16*20 = 320 +1 = 321

    Now can we return to my challenge, post before this!!
