4 5 10 13 = 24: 1 solution

Difficulty: HardOpen in Solver

10 + 13 − (4 − 5) = 24

  1. 10 + 13 = 23
  2. 4 − 5 = -1
  3. 23 − -1 = 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.
