Learn from a sample situation
Using 1, 2, 3 and 4 once each, (1 + 3) × (2 + 4) equals 24. Brackets determine which operations happen first. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Verify the rule before continuing.
A useful caution
Division and subtraction depend on selection order; zero division is blocked. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
