Ok so write down your numbers in a straight line, the way it is now in numerical order, that's just the start, once you have your numbers, start taking away a number from each side, one from the beginning, one from the end and keep doing it until you have one number left

KiWiPoP1:

if you end up having two numbers left over, fear not, just find out what number is in between them

KiWiPoP1:

I hope that made sense 🤔

quasia:
