ok, so you think you are huh!!! thought this might catch on!!! rules are very simple....... you can only use each number once + only standard maths symbols,,,,,,, e.g === add, subtract, multiply + divide!!

so here is an easy one to start with (always 6 numbers chosen from 1 to 9 and 25,50,75,100)

here we go,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 50 - 7 - 7 - 7 - 3 - 1 and you must get 175 (anyone spot the hidden fruit machine amongst the numbers???) haha

[cainer]

7+1 = 8, x7 = 56, x3 = 168 and add the other 7 = 175, the 50 isnt needed

[hitthesix]

50+7+7/7x3+1= 175

[markleshark]

ok same numbers but get 177

reserving this slot to edit with correct result later and make it look like i won

?????????? mmmmmmmmmm grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr lol

[cainer]

25x50 = 1250, 2x75 = 150 +100 =250.. 1250- 250 = 1000 - 7 = 993

[markleshark]

ok you want it even harder??? 9 - 7 - 6 - 3 - 25 - 25 ================= try + get 348,,,,,,, ive spent ages on this looking at many possibilities so im not expecting any correct answers for at least 24 hrs,,,,,,, good luck my fellow fruits!!!!! haha

[markleshark]

3 * ((25 * 6) - 25 - 9)

bj

edit liking these

spot on dude!!!! bet you cant solve this with same numbers,,,,,,,,,,9 - 7 - 6 - 3 - 25 - 25 + reach 342

[cainer]

9+3=12 x 25 = 300, 7x6 =42 300 +42 = 342

[cainer]

8*8 = 64 9-7 = 2, 2*64 = 128, 128*4 = 512

[mazooma]

8*8*(9-1)=512
