  • (6 + 6) × (9 − 7) = 24Steps
    1. 6 + 6 = 12
    2. 9 − 7 = 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.
