Target Board Challenge

Target Boards

I will put up a daily challenge. Give it a go!

Instructions: Use the numbers given to try to make the target number.
See how many different ways you can make the target. 

You can use +addition, -subtraction, x multiplication or /division and as many or few of the numbers as you need for each number sentence. 

(You can only use each number once per number sentence)

Examples: 3+2+5=10;   (3x2)+4=10;   5x2=10

Monday's Challenge:

and a challenge for your parents if they want one!

Email me your answers and I will put up all your solutions at the end of every day

Whoops, forgot to put up a solution for Monday! Thanks to Charlie I just remembered. Well done Charlie on finding so many number sentences to make up the target! 

Just be careful to only use each number once in each number sentence!

Another solution in from GraceD. I'm very impressed with this - a 2nd class pupil using multiplication!

Tuesday's challenge:

Some solutions:
(7 x 11) + 3 = 80
20 x 4 = 80
(6 x 8) +(12 + 20) = 80
(7 x 12) - 4 = 80

Did you get any different solutions?

Thanks again Charlie!
