Wei-Hwa's Puzzle Challenges

Wey Hey! Da Vinci Code quests may be over, but Wei-Hwa's Puzzle Challenges are now live on Google. Bit of a let down though...


The first is a simple math puzzle. Use 8, 8, 3, 3 and your choice of +-*/ and parentheses to make 24.

Spoiler Alert.

Its actually way easy.

8 /(3-(8/3))

3 - (8/3) = 9/3 - 8/3 = 1/3.

So 8 / 1 / 3 = 8 * 3 = 24.

Hope the next one has some cool graphics at least : )

The link you gave just goes to google.com. Is there a direct link to the puzzles?

Why is 8/3 in parentheses? Shouldnt it be outside it

i.e
8/(3-8/3)

According to the BODMAS rule its effectively the same.
