using 3,4,5,6, =28 you have to use each number once Using addition once, subtraction once, multiply once and divid once how do get these numbers to =28
please shoe me how you do it
Thanks
To find a combination of the numbers 3, 4, 5, and 6 that equals 28 using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, we can try different combinations until we find one that works. Here's one possible solution:
1. Addition: Since we're using addition only once, let's try adding the numbers together:
3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = 18
2. Subtraction: Now, let's try subtracting one of the numbers from the sum obtained in step 1:
18 - 6 = 12
3. Multiplication: Next, let's multiply the result from step 2 by one of the remaining numbers:
12 * 5 = 60
4. Division: Finally, let's divide the product from step 3 by the last remaining number:
60 / 3 = 20
Unfortunately, this combination did not result in 28. Let's try another approach:
1. Addition: Let's try a different combination by adding two numbers together:
4 + 5 = 9
2. Subtraction: Now, let's subtract one of the numbers from the sum obtained in step 1:
9 - 3 = 6
3. Multiplication: Next, let's multiply the result from step 2 by one of the remaining numbers:
6 * 6 = 36
4. Division: Finally, let's divide the product from step 3 by the last remaining number:
36 / 4 = 9
Again, this combination did not result in 28. Let's try another approach:
1. Addition: Let's try adding three numbers together:
3 + 4 + 5 = 12
2. Subtraction: Now, let's subtract one of the numbers from the sum obtained in step 1:
12 - 6 = 6
3. Multiplication: Next, let's multiply the result from step 2 by one of the remaining numbers:
6 * 5 = 30
4. Division: Finally, let's divide the product from step 3 by the last remaining number:
30 / 4 = 7.5
Oops! This combination didn't result in a whole number. Let's try one last combination:
1. Addition: Let's try adding all four numbers together:
3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = 18
2. Subtraction: Now, let's subtract one of the numbers from the sum obtained in step 1:
18 - 5 = 13
3. Multiplication: Next, let's multiply the result from step 2 by one of the remaining numbers:
13 * 4 = 52
4. Division: Finally, let's divide the product from step 3 by the last remaining number:
52 / 6 = 8.666...
It seems that no combination of these numbers using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division results in exactly 28.
