About this puzzle

  • The numbers: 2 large (75, 50) and 4 small (10, 7, 4, 1).
  • The target: 762 = 2 × 3 × 127. The nearest starting number is 75, 687 away, so you have to build the target rather than start next to it.
  • Difficulty: It is rated Hard because the shortest route needs 4 operations and the target sits far from every starting number, so there is no quick shortcut.
  • Tip: With 75 and 50 on the board, try combining the large numbers first and fine-tune with the small ones.
