Nummit #41 — target 424 (Hard)

This was the daily Nummit puzzle for April 11, 2026. The six numbers were 25, 100, 1, 7, 3, 5 and the target was 424. 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 (7, 5, 3, 1).
  • The target: 424 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 53. The nearest starting number is 100, 324 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.
