Nearest I can get is 832:

32*26=832

If nothing exact arises new target is 531

you've used 5 twice above...

Where are you getting the 10 from to solve the equation?

I might be having a slow afternoon but I'm not seeing it. Could you do the full problem showing me how you got the answer if you don't mind. I'm probably juzt blind.

Original solution was

(3x(100+2)) = 306
50 ÷5 = 10
306+5+10 = 321

1 2 4 6 50 100
552

But that uses 5 twice (bolded)

If you do this
(3x(100+2)) = 306
50 ÷5 = 10
306+ (25 - 10) = 321

you get there.

I meant in your solution to the 552. There's no 10 but you have one in there. That's why I answered it.
