Difficulty: EasyOpen in Solver

4 + 6 + 6 + 8 = 24

  1. 4 + 6 = 10
  2. 6 + 8 = 14
  3. 10 + 14 = 24

7 solutions

  • 6 × 8 − 4 × 6 = 24Steps
    1. 6 × 8 = 48
    2. 4 × 6 = 24
    3. 48 − 24 = 24
  • 6 × 6 − (4 + 8) = 24Steps
    1. 6 × 6 = 36
    2. 4 + 8 = 12
    3. 36 − 12 = 24
  • 6 × 8 ÷ (6 − 4) = 24Steps
    1. 6 × 8 = 48
    2. 6 − 4 = 2
    3. 48 ÷ 2 = 24
  • 8 × (4 − 6 ÷ 6) = 24Steps
    1. 6 ÷ 6 = 1
    2. 4 − 1 = 3
    3. 8 × 3 = 24
  • 6 × (6 − 8 ÷ 4) = 24Steps
    1. 8 ÷ 4 = 2
    2. 6 − 2 = 4
    3. 6 × 4 = 24
  • (6 + 6) ÷ (4 ÷ 8) = 24Steps
    1. 6 + 6 = 12
    2. 4 ÷ 8 = 1/2
    3. 12 ÷ 1/2 = 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.
