30 point advantage from numbers round and wins by exactly 30 points.

[@rodrigomarinho1807]

905 50*(7-4)*6 + 10/2

[@dcnole]

Me too!

[@Gator11srq]

For 154 ( :16 - :70) Well done Alex - bit of a sneaky one Same for 905 (1:55 - 2:55) - not easy with one large and five smalls and a BIG target For 743 (3:14 - 4:14) Well done David For 576 (5:01 - 6:01), I matched Alex's way Still good with numbers - been great at it since age 9 (!!!) - so these get me 👏👏😎

[@monkeydude9192]

154: 7+4=11 11×7=77 77×2=154

[@Gator11srq]

🤔I do presume (seeing the game for the first time) that you do not have to use all of them (first thought was, all of them had to be used 🧐 but that is is not the case) Two million pardons (from a numbers freak 🤓), but I saw another video and got clarification on this. Well designed 😎)

[@fplbenchwarmers6144]

905 was tricky. 50*6=300 7-4=3 300*3=900 10/2=5 900+5=905 Have no idea how David knew to do 53 x 17!

[@tehbertl7926]

743: 9 * 8 = 72 (72 + 3) * 10 = 750 750 - 7 = 743

[@ericzubyk2329]

Better than me, I got 744

[@medusa_404]

576: 50/25=2 3+2=5 100*5=500 500+75+1=576 75*25/3=625 625+1-50=576 100/50=2 25-2=23 75*23/3=575 575+1=576

[@icturner23]

(7+4) x 7 x 2 = 154. He did it in a very complicated way!

[@Mahen-j7c]

905 7-4×6×50=900 10/2=5 +900=905

[@einSteppenwolf]

905=(7-4)×6×50+10/2

[@alos1978]

1. (4x7-6)x7=154 or (2x4+6)x(4+7)=154 2. (50+6/2)x(7+10)+4=905 or (50-2-10)x4x6-7=905 3. (3x8-9)x5x10-7=743 or (8x9+7-5)x10+3=743 Or (9x10+3x5)x7+8=743 4. 75/3x25-50+1=576 or (50/25+3)x100+75+1=576 Or (75+100)x3+1+50=576 5. GENTILITY

[@hajni78]

(50/25+3)x100+75+1=576

[@williamapers3031]

(2x7)x(7+4)=154

[@quizmaster85]

For 154: (4 × 6) - 2 = 22 22 × 7 = *_154_* For 743: (9 × 8) + 3 = 75 (75 × 10) - 7 = *_743_*

[@Jothamvw]

154: 7+7=14 6*2=12 4/4=1 12-1=11 14*11=154

[@icturner23]

(7-4) x 6 x 50 + 10/2 = 905. Posting before they’ve declared but I almost didn’t see it for some reason.

[@icturner23]

Wow, David did it in such a complicated way. You can tell that Rachel was bewildered by why he was starting that way.

[@icturner23]

(25 - (100/50)) x 75 / 3 + 1 = 576. Posting before they’ve declared but I assume David will have done the same.

[@icturner23]

Oh, he didn’t. He does seem to like doing them in messy ways.

[@hajni78]

(4x6-4)x7+2x7=154

[@medusa_404]

154: 7+4=11 11*7*2=154 6*4=24 24-2=22 22*7=154 7*4=28 28-6=22 22*7=154

[@kenchristie9214]

154 (7 x 2 = 14) x (4 + 7 = 11) = 154

[@remco16041971]

8 + 3 = 11 9 * 7 * 11 = 693 5 * 10 = 50 50 + 693 = 743

[@einSteppenwolf]

743=10×(8×9+7-5)+3

[@ntvstudios2393]

What?! Nine letter teasers in yesterday’s episode, and today, eight?!

[@Chris-dm1je]

Maybe there'll be one letter fewer each day until Christmas.

[@jamese4336]

I bet David spent the first 25 seconds of the last number round trying to get it to work as 26*26

[@crystalaustralia]

I don't think that would work... Unless you leave 100 to subtract?

[@jamese4336]

@@crystalaustralia oops meant 24*24

[@crystalaustralia]

​@jamese4336 sorry was being a bit slow realising 576 is also a square number! Rachel loves a square number or the product of two primes.

[@Mahen-j7c]

743 100-7×8=744 9-5+3=1 744-1=743

[@einSteppenwolf]

576=25×(100-75)-50+1

[@Mahen-j7c]

576 100+75×3=525 525+50+1=576

[@NQTN1001]

7 × 2 × (7 + 4) = 0 (lovely start) 50 × (10 + 4 × 2) + 6 = +1 (I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get it down) Nope, cannot see it at all. And again for this one. A disappointing finish.

[@Mahen-j7c]

This week is tge easiest so Farr....
