Make 24: learn through an example

Bring this focus to a round

Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Make the next step deliberately.

What you need to achieve

Use all four numbers exactly once to obtain 24. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

From the start of a round

  1. Choose two values in order.
  2. Choose addition, subtraction, multiplication or division.
  3. Combine and repeat.
  4. Undo explores alternatives; Show solution reveals a verified expression.

Keyboard and screen controls

Tap two values, an operation and Combine. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

An example to follow

8 ÷ (3 − 8 ÷ 3) = 24. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Take a moment to compare.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Division and subtraction depend on selection order; zero division is blocked. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
