An idea for your next attempt
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Notice the feedback after each input.
The challenge in front of you
Use all four numbers exactly once to obtain 24. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Start with a deliberate move.
The order of play
- Choose two values in order.
- Choose addition, subtraction, multiplication or division.
- Combine and repeat.
- Undo explores alternatives; Show solution reveals a verified expression.
The controls to know
Tap two values, an operation and Combine. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.
One way to understand the rules
Using 1, 2, 3 and 4 once each, (1 + 3) × (2 + 4) equals 24. Brackets determine which operations happen first. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Consider the next action carefully.
A common point of confusion
Division and subtraction depend on selection order; zero division is blocked. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
