(provide your favorite theme music here). Get out
your paper & pencil, because I have a new puzzle for you!!
RESPONSES PUZZLE #83 Number Play?
A. One
solution is: (5 + 5)x5 + 5 = 55.
Did
you find another way to do it?
B. There
are several ways to work this puzzle, one is:
3x6
+ 6 – 3 = 21
How
about this solution:
(3
+ 3/6)x6 = 21?
Can
you come up with another solution?
Did
you get the Bonus Puzzles?
Since
they were announced later I will leave them out there for a while longer.
See
below if you need to peek.
For
the Part A Bonus:
30
= (5 + (5/5))x5
For
the Part B Bonus:
24
