Yeah... Remember 24, the game with the 4 numers and you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide each number to get 24.

Yep, Its back... Each "card" will have its own point value, 1-3. You may use each number only once, but you may do only * - + or / to the numbers. You must end with 24 as your total. So...

Puzzle # one!(1 pt

7, 2, 1, 20

Puzzle two(1 pt)

6, 13, 13, and 3

We will play to 100 points

7-2-1+20=24 for the first one

I give up on the second one. And for the record, I never heard of this game before :-P

You callin' me weird for never having heard of this game? :-P lol I lived a deprived childhood ;-) j/k, naw, I didn't

as for this game... you sure about the rules? lol Maybe I'm just dumb with math.... (but then again, I didn't think that 5 equaled 11) ;-) j/k

Oh, I did a google and found lotsa results for 24 the game... nothin' about a card game though. lol... damned modern technology takes precedent apparently. I'll do a vivisimo search now........you dork! your cards only go up to 10 in the real game :-P it's a standard deck of cards... hence no 20 or 13 or 12 :-P

If we are allowed to swap numbers (been awhile since I've done this), puzzle 2 is 13 + 13 - 6 / 3.

If not...well, you got me.

I'll try 3 once I know if I'm allowed to swap number order or not.

Okay, according to the rules of the game which I have downloaded the software version of, the cards can only range from values 1 to 10. So there's no guarantee that anything higher will work... and apparently, there's no guarantee even values 1 to 10 will work :-P like... how ya gonna get 24 from 10 10 10 10? :-P That's why the software version has two modes: only solvable cards and full deck (Which includes some unsolvable combos within the 1 to 10 value range)

Puzzle 5: 13 + 17 + 3 - 9; no fancy ( ) needed there.

Puzzle 3: I'm guessing my idea didn't count...I can't figure that one right now.
