About this puzzle

  • The numbers: 2 large (50, 25) and 4 small (7, 7, 4, 2).
  • The target: 484 = 2 × 2 × 11 × 11. The nearest starting number is 50, 434 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 50 and 25 on the board, try combining the large numbers first and fine-tune with the small ones.
