About this puzzle

The numbers: 2 large (100, 50) and 4 small (10, 3, 1, 1).
The target: 571 is a prime number, so it can't be reached by multiplying two smaller whole numbers. The nearest starting number is 100, 471 away, so you have to build the target rather than start next to it.

Tip: With 100 and 50 on the board, try combining the large numbers first and fine-tune with the small ones.
