50*8 = 400. -1 =399 *7=2793. /3 =931. -8 =923

My brain hurts


That is really clever Maz. Well done.

my latest effort, + its not really my go so sorry 4 that, but i do think this will last a bit longer than the rest!!! haha 100, 7, 25, 10, 3, 10 =============== 820 required, got it?????

edit,,,,,, ive just noticed a fairly simple solution (not my method- honestly!!!)

so i think we need a new solution system.. only the original method set by the poster shall be deemed correct!!!!

now try + solve it! :arghh: :biglaugh:

10x7=70
100x3=300. 300/25=12

70+12=82

82*10=820

This one is a humdinger.

4-6-8-8-10-75

Target 993

Good luck
Where you came from, is gone.
Where you thought you were going, was never there.
And where you're at right now, aint no good, unless you can get away from it.

Maz that is a nasty puzzle. Have both seb's and mark's answers and many other close calls. I will get it, I hope.

Ok, I have it.

Here it is in reverse as I couldn't be faffed to sort out the brackets for a neat reply.

3972/4 = 993
3972/6=662
662+8=670
670/10=67
67+8=75

This one has put me off these puzzles and I reckon it is the nastiest one posted in the thread.
