Aim for this result

Use all four numbers exactly once to obtain 24. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

  2. Choose addition, subtraction, multiplication or division.
  3. Combine and repeat.

Learn from a sample situation

8 ÷ (3 − 8 ÷ 3) = 24. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.

A common point of confusion

Division and subtraction depend on selection order; zero division is blocked. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
