Hi everybody,
Who's up for a challenge? I chose these numbers at random.
PUZZLE 1
10,50,5,25,and 500.
Use these numbers to make the number 575.
Rules:
Use only these numbers
No number can be used twice
You do not have to use all the numbers
You can use + - x or divide.
You can use brackets.
First one to respond with exact answer wins. If you post later but you have a substantially different answer, you win too.
If no-one gets the exact answer then closest answer after 24 hours wins. (competition closes in 24 hours)
You will be expected to explain how you got your answer.
Use a name other than 'guest' and your wins will be recorded.
If enough people are interested we will keep playing with different numbers.
Any questions?
(I have copied this game from the previous number puzzles.)
Have fun.
