4 4 6 8 = 24: 2 solutions

Difficulty: MediumOpen in Solver

4 × (8 + 4 − 6) = 24

  1. 4 − 6 = -2
  2. 8 + -2 = 6
  3. 4 × 6 = 24

2 solutions

  • (4 + 8) × (6 − 4) = 24Steps
    1. 4 + 8 = 12
    2. 6 − 4 = 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.
