    4 8 9 7 4 50 target = 811

    There are so many ways you can get near 811 by multiplying ~16 by ~50, that in a 30 second game, you probably wouldn't think of trying the 2-stage multiplication with the 4's.

    50 x 4 = 200
    200 + 9 - 8 = 201
    201 x 4 = 804
    804 + 7 = 811


    7 3 3 8 2 8, target = 433

    Embarassing, It looks like I have taken a full five minutes to work that out. I didn't - just too relaxed to give a sheit :D

    Apologies for the extra challenge: last time I posted the phone rang and I forgot to post another challenge :eek:

    40 * 3 * 7 = 840


    Next: 75 3 2 8 8 5 : 659

    Boro, do you think there actually is a solution to your previous one?
    Edit, Yes there is: (((25 x 3) + (6 x 2)) x 9) - 7 = 776 I spent far too long on that.
