Nice and easy - (9+4) * 75 = 975
975 - (50+6+8) = 911

50 - 3 = 47
47 * 10 = 470
470 - 8 = 462
462 + 5 = 467
467 * 1 = 467

Easy

You just got in there before me.

I've fixed the post now.

800 + 3 = 803

For whatever reason this one doesn't seem to be done:

25*4*(3+2)=500
500-8=492

ixoy · 13-09-2004 02:45PM

Right then. What's the numbers then?

1,2,5,7,10, 50.

Target: Umm.. 379

Cindy Love · 13-09-2004 02:54PM

1,2,5,7,10, 50.

Target: Umm.. 379

easy peasy 7x50=350 +(2x10-1) =379

Marq · 13-09-2004 03:34PM

Nope that gives you 369.

This one took me a while, but I got it in the end:

7*(50+2) = 364 + (10+5) = 379

Thorbar · 14-09-2004 11:05AM

Are you going to post up the next one?

Boro · 14-09-2004 11:15AM

Dont understand why people are incapable of reading this thread to see that you have to post one after you solve one?

Why dont you post one up Thorbar? Marq doesnt look like he could be arsed reading.

Thorbar · 14-09-2004 12:25PM

Alright but I was looking forward to solving one.
