1 7 10 12 = 24: 2 solutions

Difficulty: HardOpen in Solver

10 ÷ (1 − 7 ÷ 12) = 24

  1. 7 ÷ 12 = 7/12
  2. 1 − 7/12 = 5/12
  3. 10 ÷ 5/12 = 24

2 solutions

  • 12 × (10 − (1 + 7)) = 24Steps
    1. 1 + 7 = 8
    2. 10 − 8 = 2
    3. 12 × 2 = 24

Solving hints

  • Build a factor pair: split the four numbers into two groups and try to make a factor pair of 24 — 3 × 8, 4 × 6, or 12 × 2 — then multiply the two groups.

  • No factor pair divides cleanly? Switch to sums: make two numbers add up to 24, or try shapes like (a ± b) × (c ± d) and (a + b + c) × d.
