Nummit #192 — target 909 (Hard)

About this puzzle

  • The numbers: 2 large (50, 25) and 4 small (10, 9, 1, 1).
  • The target: 909 = 3 × 3 × 101. The nearest starting number is 50, 859 away, so you have to build the target rather than start next to it.
  • Difficulty: It is rated Hard because the shortest route needs 5 operations and the target sits far from every starting number, so there is no quick shortcut.
  • Tip: With 50 and 25 on the board, try combining the large numbers first and fine-tune with the small ones.
