75x8 + ((100+8 )/4) + 2 =629


2 4 4 8 10 100 => 319

you are using two 8's .. and you can't use (10-2) to get the other one cause you already use the 2????

Tenshot

3 6 7 2 6 1 target 376

(3+6) * 6 * 7 - 2 = 376

Tenshot

1, 3, 5, 8, 9, 25 => target 439

sixpack's little hat

(8 +9) * 25 -1 +(3*5) = 439

7 * 8= 56


56 + 2 = 58 * 9 =522


3 7 5 25 1 75 Target = 933

Tenshot

3 7 5 25 1 75 Target = 933

This is very similar to an earlier one, but here you go anyway:

(25 * 75) - 7 = 1868

1868 / (5-3) = 934

934 - 1 = 933

Now here's another:

1, 2, 4, 6, 10, 25 target 845

smiles

1, 2, 4, 6, 10, 25 target 845

Cant get it but:
4*6 = 24
+10 = 34
* 25 = 850
- 2 - 1 = 847

(this is gonna annoy me now!)

Fresh look:

(10 * 4) = 40
+ 25 = 65 [edit: had 35 typed in not 25 -- typo on tranference from good old pen and paper!]

(6 * 2) + 1 = 13

65 * 13 = 845

Now:
2 3 4 6 8 50 711

Tenshot

Nice one Fio (presuming you meant 25 rather than 35 in the previous message!)

2 * 4 + 6 = 14
50 * 14 = 700
700 + 8 + 3 = 711

Here's another:

4, 5, 10, 8, 7, 25 => 741

Exactly. :doh:

3 3 6 7 25 50

target: 473

Tenshot

3 3 6 7 25 50
target: 473

(3+7) * 50 - 25 - (6/3) = 473

And another:

7, 8, 9, 9, 6, 75 target 266

4 6 7 7 25 75

target: 585

p.pete

75 + 7 = 82 * 7 = 574 + 6 + 4 = 584
1 off!

75 - (7+7)= 61

61 * (6+4) =610

610- 25 = 585



3 6 7 8 50 100 target 433

Capt'n Midnight

3 6 7 8 50 100 target 433

(8*50) + (100 +6-7)/3 = 433

1,2,2,4,8, 50 ===> 661

p.pete

(7 - 3) * (100 + 8)
432, one away again:mad:

thegills

(50+1+2+2) * (8+4) = 660 for starters

ecksor

Right, that doesn't seem to be going anywhere.

3 8 9 9 25 75

target: 427

DapperGent

One away:
(25)*(8+9)=425+3=428

The Muppet

3 8 9 9 25 75

target: 427


75 - 25 * 8 =400

9*3 =27

400 + 27 = 427



4 6 5 2 1 50 target 677

Close ((4 * 5) - (6 + 1)) * (50 + 2)= 676
Or ((4 * 5) + 6) * ((50 / 2) + 1) = 676

Or if indices were allowed (((4*5) + 6)^2) + 1 = 677

Tenshot

4 * (2+1) * (50+6) + 5 = 677

Tenshot

9, 3, 3, 10, 7, 100 target 375

radiospan

( (100+10+9+7) * 3 ) -3 = 375


75, 10, 7, 7, 5, 3 Target = 837
