    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    You're right I wasn't thinking,

    6 + 2 = 8

    8 * 75 = 600

    4*5 + 3 = 23

    600 - 23 = 577

    I'm stuck, nearest I can get is 660

    (25-3) * 10 = 220 * (5-2) = 660

    25 - 3 = 22 * 10 = 220 + 2 = 222 * 3 = 666 - 5 = 661

    [edit]awww crap, misread Ecksor's post. Thought there were two 3's rather than two 2's.

    Dont think it can be done the other way.... well i mean if i cant do it ... :D

    How about a new one Ecksor? I think we have given up on your old one. Can you provide a solution? :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,500 ✭✭✭Fabritzo


    ((5*10)+3)*25 = 1325/2 =662.5 - 2 = 660.5---> ~661 ....
