I was reading Elli's thread with her tricks , so here's mine , no tricks - just plain math .

1,5,6,7 . with these figures using only the four basic arithmetics : +,-,*,/ get me 21 .

You may not use any number more than once (or else use the number '1' 21 times .... duh) .

Just know that we brought this up to a math proffesor back then at university times , and he gave up after 3 hours

If anyone knows - dont spoil it , icq me the answer instead 63274674

Good Luck

Pretty sure that's not how it works.

Nice try though.

Are we allowed to parenthesize? If so, this is pretty easy.

parentheses hold no value in math. .. all they do is show you the order of in which you evaluate the numbers..
