3*(6-5)*8 = 3*1*8 = 24
One possibility is :- 52 - (3 - 2) = 25 - 1 = 24 Another is :- 22 + 5 - 3 = 24 also 25 + 2 - 3 = 24
(1 + 5 - 3) * 8 = 24
24 = (3³ + 5) - 8.
Two third is 1/24 larger than five eights because 2/3 - 5/8 = 16/24 - 15/24 = 1/24. To check, subtract 1/24 from 2/3 and you get 5/8 (2/3 - 1/24 = 16/24 - 1/24 = 15/24 = 5/8) or add 1/24 to 5/8 and you get 2/3 (5/8 + 1/24 = 15/24 + 1/24 = 16/24 = 2/3)
5/5=1. 4-1 is 3. 3*8 is 24
3*(6-5)*8 = 3*1*8 = 24
5 / 5 = 1 9 - 1 = 8 3 x 8 = 24 or 3 x (9 - 5/5)
Assuming you have to use ALL the numbers.... 6 - 5 = 1 then 3 x 8 = 24. 24 x 1 = 24.
make 3 trades with 1 person trading 5 for 8 each time...=24 ... sucker
12 ÷ (3 - 5/2) = 12 ÷ 1/2 = 24
One possibility is :- 52 - (3 - 2) = 25 - 1 = 24 Another is :- 22 + 5 - 3 = 24 also 25 + 2 - 3 = 24
Okay - make both denominators the same, 3/8 = 9/24. 9/24 - 5/24 = 4/24 or 1/6
6 x [3 + (5-4)] = 6 x (3 + 1) = 6 x 4 = 24
(1 + 5 - 3) * 8 = 24
(6 and 5/8) - (4 and 3/3) = (6 and 15/24) - (4 and 24/24) = (5 and 39/24) - (4 and 24/24) = 1 and 15/24 = 1 and 5/8. Alternatively, notice that 3/3 = 1, so (4 and 3/3) = 5. Then (6 and 5/8) - (4 and 3/3) = (6 and 5/8) - (5) = 1 and 5/8.
8x3=24 24+3-3=24
