(4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4) / 4 = 17
3*(2+4)-1 = 17
7 + 7 + (4 + 4 + 4)/4 = 17
4*4*2+2*3
4 x 4 + 4/4 = 17
The numbers that go into 17 are 1 and 17, as 17 is a prime number and only divisible by 1 and itself. The numbers that go into 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, and 20, as 20 is a composite number with multiple factors.
3*(2+4)-1 = 17
3 * (4+1) + 2 = 17
17 = (4+2)*3 - 1
You can make the number 17 by using the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 in the following way: ( 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 \times 4 = 17 ). Here, you multiply 4 by 4 to get 16, and then add 1 to reach 17.
7 + 7 + (4 + 4 + 4)/4 = 17
(17-2)(4-1)= 15 * 3 = 45
The only way I can see to reach the answer of 17 is: 8 + 15 + 4 + 4 = 8 + 1 + 4 + 4 = 17. I hope that using the "5" as a power is acceptable.
42 + 13
no
4 * 4 - 4 / 4 = 15
how do i make 17 using only 2 4 6 8
To achieve a sum of 17 using the numbers 1 through 12 without repeating any numbers, several combinations are possible. One example is 5 + 6 + 6, but since 6 cannot be used twice, valid combinations include 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 7 or 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 3. However, using each number only once, valid combinations are: 5 + 6 + 4 + 2 = 17, or 10 + 7 = 17.
