  • 5 × (6 − 12 ÷ 10) = 24Steps
    1. 12 ÷ 10 = 6/5
    2. 6 − 6/5 = 24/5
    3. 5 × 24/5 = 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.
