Nummit #34 — target 781 (Hard)

This was the daily Nummit puzzle for April 4, 2026. The six numbers were 100, 25, 5, 4, 8, 10 and the target was 781. It is rated Hard, and the shortest solution takes 4 steps. Playing it here is practice mode, so it won't change your daily streak.

About this puzzle

  • The numbers: 2 large (100, 25) and 4 small (10, 8, 5, 4).
  • The target: 781 = 11 × 71. The nearest starting number is 100, 681 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 100 and 25 on the board, try combining the large numbers first and fine-tune with the small ones.
