on each problem there are four numbers to work with each goal. you want to figure how to cALCulate the goal number using the numbers to work with.

#'s to work with 4,5,5,6
goal 1: 8
goal 2: 101
goal3: 135

dumbcow · Answer

do you mean like
8 = 5+5 - sqrt(4)

anonymous · Answer

You probably have to use all 4 numbers. not sure.

dumbcow · Answer

yeah could be

8 = (6*5) -(5*4) - sqrt(4)

zarkon · Answer

5+5-(6mod 4)

anonymous · Answer

Also not sure if square root would be allowed, since it opens the doors for other roots or exponents of non-given numbers.

anonymous · Answer

yes but you have to use all for numbers like 5-5+6then the sqrt of 4 gives u 8

anonymous · Answer

yes roots are allowed watever give u the number

anonymous · Answer

Really? Well then I would just do this:
6*5*5*4^($$\log_{600} 8$$

anonymous · Answer

If he can raise to (1/2) power, a non-given number, then surely I can use any exponent I desire also.

zarkon · Answer

can you combine numbers like 6 and 4 to make 64?

anonymous · Answer

yes anything goes as long as you use the four numbers but only once to get each of the three goals

zarkon · Answer

45+56=101

anonymous · Answer

yes exactly like that Zarkon
