A careful first round
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Use all four numbers exactly once to obtain 24. Read that aim before choosing your first action. The example below illustrates a decision.
Step by step
- Choose two values in order.
- Choose addition, subtraction, multiplication or division.
- Combine and repeat.
- Undo explores alternatives; Show solution reveals a verified expression.
Controls
Tap two values, an operation and Combine. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Look at the feedback after the action.
A useful example
Using 1, 2, 3 and 4 once each, (1 + 3) × (2 + 4) equals 24. Brackets determine which operations happen first. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Verify the rule before continuing.
Watch out for this
Division and subtraction depend on selection order; zero division is blocked. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
