Great win!

Bjoern, you're a legend, and one of my favourite parts of all of RU-vid!

867: (3 x 75) + (7 x 10) - 6 =289 289 x 3 = 867 953: 100 + (7 x 5) = 135 x 7 = 945 + 6 + 2 = 953

6 + 2 = 8 8 × 50 = 400 5 × 4 = 20 (400 + 20 = 420) 7 + 3 + 3 = 13 13 × 25 = 325 (325 + 5 = 330)

103=(5*2)-(8-7+6)+100

If I see Rachel needing to use the pad to work it out, I know I have no chance.

For 281, another route is 25*9 + 8*(6+1).

For 402, I had a slightly different solution: get the 67 with 75-(4*2). For 103, if you want to use everything: 100/5 * 6 - (8+7+2) For 502, using them all: 100*4 + 9*8 + 6*5

Another way to get to 987: 5*7=35 35+75=110 110*9=990 990-3=987

Another way to get to 987: 75-7=68 68*5=340 9+2=11 340-11=329 329*3=987

1. (100+1)x(7+6/6)=808 2. (8+10)x5x9+6=816 or (2+5+10)x6x8=816 3. (100-7+2)x10=950 4. (5-3)x6x7x9-2

1. (50-1-6)x3x5=645 2. (75-25)x(9-6/3)+1=351 or (75-25-9)x6-3=351 3. (7x7+1)x8+75=475 or (75-7)x7-1=475 4. 100/(3-8/8)=50-3=47x10=470

I missed the obvious one for the last one, but one way you can do it is by recognising that 189 is a multiple of 9 (and so also 3): 189 is 63×3. So using the numbers we have: (100 - 25 - (6 × 2)) × 3 = 189

100 - 6 - 7 + 1 = 88 88 × 8 = 704

3+4 = 7, 50+1 = 51, 7*51= 357 - 10 -3 = 344 Only way to get an odd is 50/10 for 5 or 8/8 for 717soo 712/8 is 89, which you cuold get with (100-10)*8-8 but then can't do the 5. so that's +6=718, 1 away 7*100 = 700, 4*9 = 36, 700-36-2 = 662

The only one I took a different route to everyone else was (9+6/3)*25+75+1=351

645: 50- 6 - 1 = 43 5 x 3 x 43 = 645

3+8+8=19, *3=57, *10=570, -100=470 🎉

351: (75+6)*(25+1)/(9-3)

351 = (75 - 25 + 9) x 6 - 3 475 = (75 - 7) x 7 + 1 470 = (100/ (3 - 8/8) - 3) x 10

25+75-1=99 99*3=297 6*9=54 297+54=351

My 977 was odd. 100+7 = 108 107*9 = 963 963+6+5+3 = 977

470: 100+8 = 108 108/3 = 36 36+8+3 = 47 47x10 = 470

351: 75+25-1 = 99 99x3 = 297 9x6 = 54 54+297 = 351

Using the numbers in order, (75-8)*7 +7 - 1 = 475

470=(8-3)×100-3×10=(8-3)×(100-(10-8)×3)

475=(7-1)×(75+3)+7

351=25x(9+6)-(75/3)+1

351=3×(75+25-1)+9*6

645=3×5×(50-6-1)

50 × (6 + 4 + 3) - 5 = 0 (easy starter) 25 × (9 + 6 - 1) = -1 (unsure if I can get any closer) 75 × (7 - 1) + 8 × 3 = -1 (one off again) 8 × (3 + 3) × 10 - 8 = +2 (feels like a difficult one)

6 x 6 = 36 36 + 50 = 86 86 x 2 = 172 8 + 7 = 15 172 + 15 = 187 First numbers game

470: 8 - 3 = 5 100 * 5 = 500 10 * 3 = 30 500 - 30 = 470 100 + 8 = 108 108 / 3 = 36 36 + 8 + 3 = 47 47 * 10 = 470 8 - 3 = 5 8 * 5 = 40 40 - 3 = 37 37 * 10 = 370 370 + 100 = 470

475: 75 - 7 = 68 68 * 7 = 476 476 - 1 = 475 7 * 7 = 49 49 + 1 = 50 50 * 8 = 400 400 + 75 = 475 8 * 7 = 56 56 - 1 = 55 7 + 3 = 10 55 * 10 = 550 550 - 75 = 475

351 = 9*(25+6)+75-3

351: 75 - 25 = 50 6 / 3 = 2 9 - 2 = 7 50 * 7 = 350 350 + 1 = 351 75 + 25 - 1 = 99 99 / 3 = 33 33 + 6 = 39 39 * 9 = 351 75 - 3 = 72 6 - 1 = 5 72 * 5 = 360 360 - 9 = 351

475 = 7*(75-7) -1

645: 6 + 4 + 3 = 13 50 * 13 = 650 650 - 5 = 645 4 * 3 = 12 12 + 1 = 13 50 * 13 = 650 650 - 5 = 645 50 - 6 - 1 = 43 43 * 5 * 3 = 645
