Countdown

50 x 4 = 200
3 x 8 = 24
200 + 24 + 5 + 2 = 231

target 584

25 7 6 9 2 4

tbh, i usually have these done in my head within about 5 seconds of the target coming up. i've even done quite a few that carol didn't manage to get, albeit in a longer period of time. anyway countdown fans, next one carol cant do, post it to me. if it's possible, i'll post the solution. dont start posting back sly remarks either, i'm not looking for praise or anything. just stating that i'm up to the challenge.

according to the rules of the game, you cant do anything that results in a decimal number. only whole numbers. ie... you cant say 3/2 = 1.5; but 50/2 = 25 is fine for example

Lynibeth

Oh I know I didn't get the answer.. was just sharing my stupidity lol
