Hi Geoff

In the last maths problem of the 3 August program, the numbers were 3,3,10,5,2,50. Target 784

My Solution (50-3+2)*(5+3)=784.

Regards

Darn - my previous effort came to 392 half the target! Will rework.

Not Happy, but can get 786 by...

(10+5)*50+(3+3)^2=786

John, I could only get one away. (10+2)*(50+5*3)+3=783

HOTNESS
WAGERS
(5+1+1)*(100+5)=730 (2 off)
FILTER
BLAMED
2*(50+8+9)+6=140 (2 off)
CLIMB and wondered about CLUBMAN but sadly did not declare it.
(5*7-4-1)*25-2=748
x jumped in with the incorrect LEVITATE...grrr...

John: It looks like you're referring to episode 393. As you can see from my writeup, I didn't solve it within time either, but got there eventually.
