186 same way. Tip here is either multiply or divide the totals to get a scenario to get a different total. 93x2 =186 (not so obvious at first but when you realise it makes getting a number of math puzzles answered)
Incredible - a time where a 1 large is actually impossible and 3 away was the best you could do! Don't often see that on a 1 large - I blame those two 1s!
In the first numbers round, I saw Stephanie's solution and there's also an available solution from 3 below, but I think they're the only two. 9 x 8 = 72 72 - 9 = 63 75 + 63 = 138 1 + 1 = 2 138 x 2 = 276 In the second numbers round, I had a couple of solutions based on factorization of the target (19 x 2^3 = 152). First, the two-step solution: 25 - 6 = 19 19 x 8 = 152 But I also had these other ways of getting 19: 100 / 5 = 20 20 - 1 = 19 19 x 9 = 152 100 / 25 = 4 6 x 4 = 24 24 - 5 = 19 19 x 8 = 152 In the third numbers round, I saw Rachel's solution and also had this one: 7 + 6 = 13 13 x 2 = 26 100 - 26 = 74 74 x 7 = 518 518 + 1 = 519 Like the first numbers round, I think this is the only alternative. At least I couldn't see any others. In the final numbers round, I saw Philip's solution but there were some fancier solutions available if one wanted to avail oneself of them. First, one of the basic 4-large tricks is that you can make 30 out of the four large numbers alone: 75 x 50 = 3750 100 + 25 = 125 3750 / 125 = 30 30 + 1 = 31 31 x 6 = 186 And there are a couple more ways of making 31 with the four large numbers and a 1: 75 + 1 = 76 100 / 25 = 4 76 / 4 = 19 50 - 19 = 31 31 x 6 = 186 75 + 50 = 125 125 - 1 = 124 124 x 25 = 3100 3100 x 6 = 18600 18600 / 100 = 186 And you can also do these: 100 - 6 = 94 94 x 50 = 4700 4700 - 75 = 4625 4625 / 25 = 185 185 + 1 = 186 50 + 1 = 51 100 x 51 = 5100 75 x 6 = 450 5100 - 450 = 4650 4650 / 25 = 186 The logic of these solutions is that when divided by the 25, 50 becomes 2, 75 becomes 3, and 100 becomes 4. So the first solution, simplified, is (100 - 6) x 2 - 3 + 1 = 186, and the second is (50 + 1) x 4 - 6 x 3 = 186.
I’ve always heard it RES-er-vor. It’s fascinating how loan words can have different pronunciations in British and American English. For another example, look at jalapeño.
Just want to say thank you for editing and uploading these videos 😊
Uhm..

On 519, Philip did not declare when he realised he had "used the 7 twice" but there were two 7s in the selection. Had he in fact solved it?
I was just thinking that. Why didn't someone point out that there were two 7s when he said that?
The answer is no lol
If he's smart enough to appear on the show and do well, I'm sure he probably did realise he made an error and used three 7s.
Yes, that's correct :)
Though I am not that smart lol@@simonrodgers8902

Got the conundrum (rare for me) in 4s. Surprised no one got it.

That’s my maths teacher Philip 😂😂
Same bro 😂
152:
25 + 1 = 26
8 - 6 = 2
26 * 2 = 52
100 + 52 = 152
6 + 1 = 7
7 * 5 = 35
35 - 8 = 27
100 + 27 + 25 = 152
25 - 6 = 19
19 * 8 = 152
519:
100 - 7 - 7 = 86
86 * 6 = 516
516 + 2 + 1 = 519
7 + 6 = 13
13 * 2 = 26
100 - 26 = 74
74 * 7 = 518
518 + 1 = 519
186:
50 / 25 = 2
6 * 2 = 12
12 - 1 = 11
100 + 75 + 11 = 186
100 - 6 - 1 = 93
50 / 25 = 2
93 * 2 = 186
75 + 50 - 1 = 124
100 / 25 = 4
124 / 4 = 31
31 * 6 = 186
152 is made quite simpler when you realise it’s divisible by 8;
25-6=19
19*8=152
Or if you fancy another solution;
5+1=6
100/25*6*6=144
144+8=152
Rachel is a goddess!
In the first numbers round, I saw Stephanie's solution and there's also an available solution from 3 below, but I think they're the only two.
9 x 8 = 72
72 - 9 = 63
75 + 63 = 138
1 + 1 = 2
138 x 2 = 276
In the second numbers round, I had a couple of solutions based on factorization of the target (19 x 2^3 = 152). First, the two-step solution:
25 - 6 = 19
19 x 8 = 152
But I also had these other ways of getting 19:
100 / 5 = 20
20 - 1 = 19
19 x 9 = 152
100 / 25 = 4
6 x 4 = 24
24 - 5 = 19
19 x 8 = 152
In the third numbers round, I saw Rachel's solution and also had this one:
7 + 6 = 13
13 x 2 = 26
100 - 26 = 74
74 x 7 = 518
518 + 1 = 519
Like the first numbers round, I think this is the only alternative. At least I couldn't see any others.
In the final numbers round, I saw Philip's solution but there were some fancier solutions available if one wanted to avail oneself of them. First, one of the basic 4-large tricks is that you can make 30 out of the four large numbers alone:
75 x 50 = 3750
100 + 25 = 125
3750 / 125 = 30
30 + 1 = 31
31 x 6 = 186
And there are a couple more ways of making 31 with the four large numbers and a 1:
75 + 1 = 76
100 / 25 = 4
76 / 4 = 19
50 - 19 = 31
31 x 6 = 186
75 + 50 = 125
125 - 1 = 124
124 x 25 = 3100
3100 x 6 = 18600
18600 / 100 = 186
And you can also do these:
100 - 6 = 94
94 x 50 = 4700
4700 - 75 = 4625
4625 / 25 = 185
185 + 1 = 186
50 + 1 = 51
100 x 51 = 5100
75 x 6 = 450
5100 - 450 = 4650
4650 / 25 = 186
The logic of these solutions is that when divided by the 25, 50 becomes 2, 75 becomes 3, and 100 becomes 4. So the first solution, simplified, is (100 - 6) x 2 - 3 + 1 = 186, and the second is (50 + 1) x 4 - 6 x 3 = 186.
9+9 = 18 1+1 = 2 8÷2 = 4X75 = 300-18 = 282 (A Rare 3 Away Is The Closest)
6-1 = 5 100-5 = 95X8 = 760÷5 = 152
25-6 = 19X8 = 152
7+7 = 14 100-14 = 86X6 = 516+2+1 = 519
7+6 = 13X2 = 26 100-26 = 74X7 = 518+1 = 519
100-6-1 = 93 50÷25 = 2X93 = 186
50÷25 = 2X6 = 12-1 = 11+75+100 = 186
25 - 6 = 19
(19 x 8 = 152)
100 + 75 = 175
50 / 25 x 6 - 1 = 11
175 + 11 = 186
152=100+(6x8)+5-1
186=100+75+(6x(50/25))-1
That anagram of PREDATOR... the word PARROTED was a solution as well as TEARDROP.
186=100+75-50/25×6-1
Why did she declare 175? She could have at least added the 6 and the 1 for 182. 175 isn't even within 10...
100+75+(6×(50/25)-1)=186
I did it that way
@ 4:29, she used only one 7. I thought you had to use all the digits?
No. People sometimes like to use all the digits to be fancy, but it's not required and gets no extra points.
As an American, I don't think I've ever head reservoir pronounced that like before.
How do Americans pronounce it?
It's the only pronunciation I know. How else would you pronounce it?
You're also the first who spells 'had' as 'head'.
Is education free in the US?
I’ve always heard it RES-er-vor. It’s fascinating how loan words can have different pronunciations in British and American English. For another example, look at jalapeño.
@@jacquesmertens3369 I meant to type “heard,” but I guess my teachers are to blame for my dodgy Bluetooth keyboard.
Funnily enough, both the British and Canadians use the original French pronunciation of reservoir…I guess the Americans “anglicized” it.
2 times 8 is 16
