Target24
Choose a number, an operator, then another number. Combine all four to make 24.
📘 Make 24 Strategy Guide
Work backward from factors
If you see a 6, try to make 4 with the other numbers. With 8, make 3; with 12, make 2. Backward reasoning beats random guessing.
Do not ignore fractions
The set 3, 3, 8, 8 uses 8 ÷ (3 − 8 ÷ 3). Master puzzles often use a small fraction to change a multiplication result.
Interaction tip
Tap the first number, choose an operator, then tap the second number. Order matters for subtraction and division, and Undo immediately restores a mistaken step.
❓ Make 24 FAQ
What are the rules of Make 24?
Use all four given numbers exactly once with addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and parentheses. The final result must equal 24.
Can intermediate results be negative or fractional?
Yes. Advanced puzzles may require a negative number or an exact fraction. The game uses rational arithmetic, so floating-point rounding never invalidates a correct solution.
How are the 120 levels graded?
Levels 1–30 are Starter, 31–60 Junior, 61–90 Challenge, and 91–120 Master. Later stages more often require division, reversed subtraction, or fractional intermediate values.
Does the daily challenge change every day?
Yes. It is generated from the date, so everyone receives the same puzzle on a given day and a new one appears the next day.
Do I need an account to challenge a friend?
No. After solving a puzzle, the challenge link encodes the numbers and your time. A friend can open it and play the exact same puzzle immediately.
What skills does Make 24 develop?
It develops arithmetic fluency, number sense, order of operations, factorization, and backward reasoning. Finding multiple solutions also builds flexible thinking.
